foot brake suddenly went spongy ( loss of pressure feel) at low speed on flat road after a 70km drive.
Handbrake dashboard warning light came on briefly -handbrake was not on.
Was fine for another 30 kms or so and then another brief incident with same details.
Traveled another 100kms with no problem.
brake fluid level is fine with no obvious leaks in the lines.
pads were changed 3 months ago.
if sponginess comes back a few pedal pumps seem to fix it.
All suggestions welcome. Also pls suggest troubleshoot confirmation steps with any suggestions.
eg The problem may be ABC and you can confirm this by doing XYZ.
