Default Brakes
I got my brakes done about 2 months ago, brand new, and now i'm noticing when I drive I have to push the brake pedal down a little more to come to a complete stop, sometimes I end up having to push it all the way down, can anyone tell me what could be wrong?

+1 check your master cylinder and if it looks good try doing a brake oil bleed.

+1 master cylinder. when they changed the brake fluid, they probably washed out all the crap in the system that kept it from leaking.

bleed the brakes first, see if that helps any. if that doesn't solve the problem, then it's the master cylinder.
