I'll Well the level hasn't dropped in the reservoir for over a week so do the maths, how that is possible I don't know. I put my feet on the pedal I'm not sure if it goes to the floor or not so I'll get another opinion on that. I felt it sinking to the floor the other week but doesn't seem to...

Could I clean the belt with a cloth and water ?

Strangely the level of brake fluid hadn't dropped in about 500 miles over the last 10 days, whereas it was needing topping up every 150 miles beforehand. How can it suddenly just stop leaking ?

Thanks John. I wondered if the oil had got in from outside the belt area as there is wet oil outside belt, near where the bolt is missing for timing belt cover. here are some pics of the belt /area with oil contamination please see 3rd picture, I think it shows most detail of problem...

I removed the timing belt top cover today on my 2007 Vauxhall Vectra 1.9 cdti 120 bhp. Just to inspect it for maintenance reasons. I noticed a missing bolt on the timing belt cover and near this bolt was oil on the outside area of the timing belt cover. because the bolt was missing I think oil...

As many of you may know my vauxhall vectraa 1.9 cdti 120 bhp had developed an issue in that the level in the brake fluid reservoir was dropping and would need topping up about every 100 - 200 miles. the level would drop about 0.5 - 1 inch within every 100 or 200 miles. However for the week or...

Moderator s please close this thread now thanks What is where the leak is ? I'll check the pipes again myself but it didn't seem to be leaking when both the garage and I checked it

Sold car last night no longer have it ***

Thank you very much

Yes, it's a brake servo and master cylinder which is acceptable to fit other than brand new, it's not however acceptable to replace used brake pads or discs as they must always be new when replaced

I'll check that once it is off of my car. How is the master cylinder separated from the servo ? I understand it'll need bleeding, I have bled brakes when replacing the calipers so I assume it's just need bleeding for longer ? I hear a lot about bench bleed the master cylinder whatever that is...

I was told yesterday the master cylinder and servo need be replaced. Not sure if he correctly diagnosed it or not When you say it's not a good idea taking it off the car what did you mean ? I took it off a petrol Vectra had the same code on brake servo and euro car parts show same master...

Well I removed it and it was relatively easy, so now that I know what I'm doing it'll be quicker when I do the job on the car. Hardest part is say was lack of clearance getting the brake servo out

Don't know for sure if it's a fault with the brake master cylinder or servo

You need a new hobby instead of counting pages

Bought the parts today, brake master cylinder and servo total cost £15. Stfu

Hi John, thanks. So as I say the garage today out on the report the master cylinder and servo needed replacing, but there are no leaks do how can he say that ? He said the brake pipes looked ok i know it's leaking, regardless of the pedal going to floor or not as the fluid level keeps dropping

Don't you worry about that Mr troll

What's wrong please don't be sucked in by the trolls. I appreciate all your help and you know that

Thanks very much I'll probably do that I had a little look at the pipe myself from what I see it looks ok
