Is it bad that the master cylinder is leaking?

so my floor mat is a little damp and my the fluid in my resvoir goes down once in a while... i say it lasts about 2 weeks.. i just refill it every time its low... how bad is it if the cylinder keeps leaking? im debating whether i should fix it now or wait till my next pay check. clutch still hasnt lost any pressure except for the time the resvoir didnt have any fluid, which i refilled then it was fine.

and whats the differance between a oem and aftermarket master cylinder? and could it be only the master cylinder or are there other elements to the leak?

Are you sure it's actually the master cylinder leaking? The reservoir that is attached to it is where the fluid goes, but just because you're filling it back up doesn't mean it's necessarily the master cylinder unless you're actually seeing where the leak is at and can verify that is indeed where the fluid comes out. If you don't actually see fluid coming from the master cylinder it could be somewhere else such as a caliper setup, a line, etc. They can sometimes be a royal pain to track down because sometimes the fluid will seep in places that gets soaked up (such as around the caliper, where lots of dust, dirt and grime can go that can suck it up) that is not immediately noticeable. Others might leave a love spot in your garage or driveway to make it easier to track down. If it's leaking that bad though it's no small leak.

Any kind of part of your brakes that are LEAKING should not be a fix that is put off. The brakes are the most important part of your car that you use on a daily basis. If a seal goes bad from it and decides to give or the leak gets bad enough to get air in your line you could very well be looking at someone's tailgate, it's nothing to take lightly. Especially where it's apparently already had no fluid and your clutch didn't work, imagine your brakes being affected....

The fact that it is starting to look is a sign that you either need to have the master cylinder rebuilt (depending on the car there are usually rebuild kits available) or get another one. Most of the time OEM and aftermarket aren't going to make an enormous difference that is noticeable as long as your brakes remain stock. Only would a better lines setup, brake setup, rotor setup, pads, and the rest of the upgrades would be a "significant change". Just make sure whatever you buy to fix it is reliable and not a cheap fix. The last thing you want to be a cheap fix is your brakes.

Is it bad? It's not horrible. Is it concerning? Absolutely! Should it be fixed soon? Absolutely without a doubt. Your life rides on your brakes on a daily basis, don't skimp on them.

Good luck on getting it fixed.

What are Genuine Honda or OEM accessories?

As an example, Honda Genuine floor mats can be made by an accessories manufacturer, also known as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), who specializes in making rubber, vinyl or carpeted products. They are given the detailed product specifications with a set of standards for quality and workmanship from Honda. This allows Honda to put the same guarantee of quality and fit you would expect from the Honda car or truck you purchased. OEM accessories also tend to give Honda vehicles a clean, sleek customized look and feel. Genuine Honda accessories often also use the official Honda "H" symbol on their products. This is different than aftermarket accessories.

What are Aftermarket accessories?

Aftermarket accessories are manufactured by companies who have researched a vehicle on their own and have designed their own accessories. These accessories may not live up to Honda standards or requirements. Because these accessories are not certified by Honda this can cause such problems as a voided warranty or issues regarding lease agreements caused by a minor manufacturing company incapable of offering the same guarantee as OEM products and will not be honored as per the vehicle manufacturer warranty.

EBH Accessories is a retailer of Genuine Honda Accessories and does not retail any aftermarket accessories. This gives our customers the piece of mind of buying and installing Genuine Honda Accessories without the concern of possibly voiding warranties.
