My Ride: 530d
Thanks for the update. Good information. I could swear that the two circuits in the master cylinder went to diagonal wheels. That is, each master cylinder fluid circuit went to one front and one rear brake. Maybe that's the way it was in the old old days I've had bad master cylinder before, but as I recall, the pedal really let's you know something is very wrong.
For a few years small commercial vehicles in the uk atleast, had a front rear split, but the front callipers had two sets of pistons each fed off a different circuit, so regardless of what circuit failed there would always be front brakes! was a pain to maintain with two brake hoses, 4 pistons, and 3 bleed nipples per calliper!
