Hi,
I have a 1999 TD5 manual. A few weeks ago i was coming out of a multi storey car park when the brakes almost failed. I say almost because i had to press really hard to make them work and then it was only the front passenger side that was working. I have driven some short distances on private land to see what was going on and it is still the same. What i have noticed is that the rear passenger side disc is completely rusty and the other two, front and rear drivers side, are slightly rusty. I have bled the brakes and believe there is no air in the system. By the way, the clutch works fine. What i have noticed though is that the fluid is leaking out somewhere. Not that i can see it on the ground, its just dissappearing from the resevoir. I can see no leaks in the engine bay either.........................any ideas?????????????????????
Regards, Colin
