The following instructions are intended to help you find the causes of problems effectively and objectively in the event of complaints about the brake servo or in the event of a so-called »hard brake pedal«.
This check relates to the following components:
Brake servo
Oil seal between brake master cylinder and brake servo.
Non-return valve
Vacuum hoses with connectors
Vacuum pump (if fitted)
When evaluating the measuring results, bear in mind that they will be influenced by the geographical location. The higher your location is above sea level, the lower the air pressure will be.

Visual inspection of all vacuum hoses for damage (e.g. cracks or marten bite) and to check that they are correctly and firmly attached
Ensure cleanliness when working on vacuum system
