brakes dont work in cold weather

get a buddy and see if theres bubbles in the master when you hit the breaks. the rubbers that hold the plastic tank to the master went hard on mine, didnt seal properly, and was allowing air into the brake system. they would work for a while then get gradually softer, which sucks with an auto. if not id check to see if the master itself isnt shot, ie leaking fluid from the rear seal.

Thanks for everyone who responded. I bleed the brakes today after work and also found a leaky brake hose connection on the drivers side front wheel. bolt was loose that connected the brake hose to the caliper. im glad it was nothing major. thanks again.
