Hi, I´ve recently bought a P38 Range Rover and the latest issue (of many already!) that I have experienced is somehow related to the braking system.
Both ABS and emergency brake lights come on at every first push of the brake pedal meanwhile I can hear the pump running.
Looking at this page
http://www.rangerovers.net/repairdetails/braketc/abs.html
I guess that the problem lays either on the accumulator or... somewhere else!
I followed the instruction for the diagnosys and the pump did cycle on repeatedly during the 5-minute wait, now what is "unclear" to me is the "some sort of internal leakage (probably a seal, or check-valve)".
I would change the accumulator but I feel that may not cure the issue.
Which "seal" or "check-valve" should I check?
Should I better change the accumulator and its electric pump or the whole ABS/master cylinder box?
