Hi, has anyone come across this before?
With the engine not running and after a couple of presses of the brake pedal, I get a nice hard pedal with no fade.
However, with the engine running, it goes exceptionally soft and the braking efficiency seems very poor - like it's only working on the primary circuit (single pistons on the front calipers only).
I can't see any obvious leaks and the fluid level doesn't seem to have dropped.
By virtue of the pressure being good with the engine off, I'm assuming the servo is working? Could it be a problem with the vacuum pump?
Any help much appreciated
