Because the new master cylinder is not a "like for like" substitution and may be from a different supplier the new part has to go through a re-homologation process so not to compromise the vehicles type approval. I'm told there are cylinders on test rigs in the factory going through test cycles 24/7. It is, I'm told, due to be finished this week.
Quite why this is needed when an owner can choose to change a master cylinder without reference to anyone, but the manufacturer cannot, beats me.
