My brake pedal goes to the floor but will pump up. First impression is master cylinder. The strange thing fluid is coming out of the cap on the reservoir. No fluid has been added.
Any suggestions.
I suspect you have a "hydro boost" system.
Hydro boost uses power steering pump to give you the boost needed instead of a vacuum assist.
You may have a issue with the hydro boost pump system leaking hydraulic fluid INTO the brake system.. That would be the only way I would think your MC could have fluid coming out of it without you adding any. If I am correct your power steering fluid will be low.
As suggested, do not continue driving until you find and fix the problem. Seek out a mechanic if you do not feel comfortable troubleshooting and fixing, it is your lives at stake..
