Well why didn't you say so? As others have pointed out, either a. you're losing fluid, or b. your pads are very worn. Next thing to do is check the pads. Anything less than a couple of mm on them then definitely time to replace. If they aren't worn, start looking for a leak. Check the brake master, then all the calipers and hoses. > The point of the post is to establish if this diagnosis is reasonable and if > it happens to other cars.
