Does anyone know if you can get non genuine brake servo's for a
406 or do they have to come from main stealers ... cheers

Panic over guys ... the prob was have got a leak in the A/C high pressure pipe
and when i followed the pipe back to the bulkhead it passes under the servo and i noticed a large patch
of rust that looked as if it was nearly through the metal... closer inspection revealed the metal ts ok just
paint coming off...but thanks for quick reply's

james the pipe that is leaking is the hp one that
goes to the bulkhead you any idea how much work would be involved for a mechanic to replace it

depends if the join is at the bulhead or if the pipe passes through the bulkhead

had a quote of the local stealers ... to replace the 2 pipes... they are classed as one item
and they go from the front under the battery tray under the servo along the bulkhead ...and recharge the system
£293 and that includes vat... i know the cost of the pipes is £58 and they charge £65 for a recharge so for once
it doesn't seem too over the top so going to let them do it
