Hi all,

I have a problem with break fluid leaking in my discover 1, my mechanic has taken a look and we have found the cause of the leak, but as he works on brand new Audi's not 17 year old Landrovers he doesn't know what it is called, anybody know?

It connects to the brake servo and looks as though it diverts braking (?) to the front / rear brakes.

Any help much appreciated.

Daryl :)

Hi Daryl....Is there a brake pipe coming out of the back of the unit shown in your picture?

If yes...and that pipe runs to the rear brakes....it is a brake compensator valve. It reduces the pressure to the rear brakes.
 
Yeah that's it, pipe going to the back and the front as well. Your a fountain of knowledge Thank you sir!

Now to find one!
 
Daryl, what year is your Disco and is it ABS or NON ABS?

Just checked and it is called a Pressure Reducing Valve no matter whether the vehicle has ABS or not
 
its a 1993 Disco (K) pretty sure I don't have ABS although not 100% as I have never needed to find out (yet)
Thanks for the help Dave.
