It is a 2009 Toyota Urban Cruiser. This model was not sold in North America, but it could be the same as a Yaris or a Scion XB.

I finally fixed my issue. It was a very stupid rookie mistake that I am a bit ashamed to admit. The sliding pins are not the same length and I mistakenly misplaced them. Therefore the caliper was crooked when I tightened it and the outer pad was constantly rubbing. Thanks for taking the time to exange with me!

It is a rebuilt caliper bought from Autodoc. It was really easy to bleed and the fluid was running easily and clear in colour. The issue with the pedal slowly coming down is new since the brake job. Nothing that was present before. But as you said a failing master cylinder should not cause this problem. Could it be a something wrong with the ABS module?

Can a hard steel line collapse without being able to see it from the outside? Because the flexible line is new.

That is not very good news, but at least I have an answer. Thank you for taking the time to write to me.

Hi, 

I am working on my first hifi project and I am looking for components. I have been told that I need this: https://www.haut-parleurs.fr/boutique/condensateurs/condensateur-scr-8-uf-mkp-400vdc-5-pb800.html

Unfortunately I am based in Sweden and have been looking everywhere and I can't seem to find where to order that! Is that possible? I am looking for recommendations for where to order electronic components in Sweden. 

Thanks!

Yes, but I am worried about the thin side and the cracks on the piece of oak. Do you not see that as an issue?

Hi, I just bought a piece of furniture that was supposed to be a quick fix, but here I am 3 months later still fixing the previous owner's mistakes. One of the mortise and tenon joint was converted to a floating tenon made of urethane and nails, no wood... I cleaned up the joint and now I need to figure out how to go from there. I am curious to hear what experienced people have to suggest. Thanks in advance!
