Hi All,
New to the forum and just picked up my first S3 SWB diesel yesterday. Been driving LRs for years but never owned or maintained one, so here goes!
On drive home two issues came up which need urgent attention:
Thanks,

New to the forum and just picked up my first S3 SWB diesel yesterday. Been driving LRs for years but never owned or maintained one, so here goes!
On drive home two issues came up which need urgent attention:
- The brake pedal needs to be pumped 3-4 times before decent pressure is gained, then stops well. Previous owner claimed the brakes were bled in the morning, and there was no loss of fluid in the master cylinder over the rather scary 80 mile journey home (car is MoT'd!!). Master cylinder knackered?
- There is nothing in the handrake at all. Button will not depress and no ratchet or bite. Made hill starts interesting....
Thanks,
Martin
