The Subaru Impreza average ($124) runs 25% above its median ($99), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 11 model years for the Subaru Impreza (2015–2025) but only 6 for the Ford Fusion (2015–2020), so the Subaru Impreza data reflects a broader range of generations.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used brake master cylinder

  • Verify reservoir port style, fluid level sensor connector pin count, and brake line flare port sizes and locations (metric vs imperial threads).
  • Check bore size specifications, as vehicles equipped with heavy-duty tow packages or larger brake calipers use larger diameter master cylinder bores.
  • Inspect primary and secondary piston bore seals for internal bypass leaks, fluid weeping at the brake booster mounting flange, or dark sludge build-up.
  • Confirm whether the unit is designed for vacuum-assisted, hydro-boost, or electro-hydraulic brake systems.
