I am getting a whooshing noise when I pump my brake - I am not sure if they have always done this or it is because I pumped it today - there is no real noise if I press it when driving / stopping normally .

I have checked the servo as described in my haynes manual and it seems to be operating i.e. vacum building and pedal getting firmer when repeatedly pressed when engine off.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I going away tomorrow for a long weekend camping..

That all sounds perfectly normal to me.

One last check: with the engine off, press the brake pedal and whilst holding it down start the engine - the pedal should sink slightly. If it does, all is normal.
