Brake issue
#11
I think thats what everybody do. Save us a little step by getting opinions first. Often we have the idea what needed to be done but because a lot of members here are well capable of help and support, we ask. I do that every time. Plus theres OverRover for hard to find parts and he puts the big RED arrow for you. HEHEHEHEHE

I just went through this kinda of issue with my now retired Pathfinder - master was going but I could get the "standard" indicators. Pedal would not maintain pressure, could replicate pedal loss etc. it came out of no where too.
The Disco did it once on a cold start and has not done anything for the last 2 days - short trips only. Did a test on a small hill, dead end's at the long flat dirt road. She held fine for 10 minutes no pedal loss.
It is a head scratcher, but full fluid change and bleed during the holidays. To eliminate that as an issue.

AFTER you have ruled out the master cylinder, etc as the cause for the low pressure consider replacing the rubber brake hoses with a braided stainless steel hose set. I run SS hardlines and hoses on every LR, motorcycle, and car that I own even if I have to get them made. Well worth it.
As far as a firmer pedal feel SS brake hoses make a great improvement to a DII. If you have, or are planning to do a lift they also make these hoses in extended lengths. There are many brands like Goodridge and AB has a set too.
