The brake master cylinder converts pedal pressure into hydraulic pressure for the calipers and drums. On Peugeot 307 and 308 we see internal seals leak, so the pedal sinks slowly to the floor even when the fluid level looks fine.

Common Questions About Peugeot 508 Master Cylinder
What are the symptoms of a failing Peugeot master cylinder?
A sinking pedal under constant pressure is the classic sign. Fluid loss with no visible leak, soft pedal after bleeding, and a brake warning light together point squarely at the master cylinder, not the calipers or ABS unit.
How much does it cost to replace a Peugeot brake master cylinder?
Through SA suppliers like Modern Auto Parts, the BM238-3314 master cylinder covers 307 and 308 and runs well under the dealer price. Fitted, budget R2,500-R5,500 at an SA indie including fluid and a full system bleed.
Why is my Peugeot brake pedal sinking to the floor?
Worn seals inside the master cylinder let fluid bypass the piston instead of pushing it down the lines. The fluid reservoir stays full because nothing is leaking outside. Air in the lines causes a spongy pedal, not a sinking one.
Can you drive a Peugeot with a bad master cylinder?
No. A failing master cylinder can let the pedal hit the floor with no braking at all, which is lethal on an SA highway. Recover the car to a workshop and fit a new cylinder before driving it further.
