STEADS Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Your pants I think lol no I'd be looking at the flexi hose going to the caliper possibly collapsed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgsy Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Did you lose all brakes of was the pedal just very hard to press. I was thinking possible vacuum hose collapsing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJRTDDI Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 i had to really stand on them to slow down even alittle bit.I blowed down the pipe /sucked and 1 way valve seems to work fine . i didnt feel any damage to the pipe.after sucking hard on the vacume pipe is seemed like there was alittle fuild in there.i changed the vacume pump.(pumped pedal then started and pedal did slowly go down.. but really slow. i cant even find the dam servo all i know is im due in work in less then 30 mins and im sick of this car breaking ever 5 seconds.
