Re: brake prob
Hope not
Could be the servo but I'm sure we had one a few years back did this, the vacuum pump seemed ok but turned out to be the problem. The pump also supplies vacuum for the solenoids at the back of the engine bay that work the turbo boost and EGR, notice any change in performance along with the braking problems? Any hissing noises?
