Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Tandem Master Brake Cylinder
The MK60 system uses a tandem master brake cylinder fitted with central valves as in other DSC master cylinders. The central valves allow fluid to be drawn through the master cylinder during ASC and DSC regulation. The hydraulic circuit is divided front/rear.
An inlet for pre-charge pressure is no longer used since the charge pump has been eliminated from the MK60.
Both brake pressure sensors are mounted on the master cylinder.
