It would be helpful to know what Freelander you have and the year it was made.

HI Ta j
The vacuum hose come from the EGR to the EGR solenoid then from there to a one way valve, sometime the hose can get chaffed and this results in an hole in the hose, therefore needs to be replaced below are photo of the hose from the EGR solenoid tracking back to the valve.

Hi thanks for reply’s it’s 2000 td4 will take pic

Lack of servo vacuum would give less brake pedal travel, not more. The pedal will always go down further when the servo is boosting, as that's it working.
If your pedal is dropping a long way, then you're best bet is to check the rear brakes for serviceability and adjustment.

Thank you I stripped the rear brakes as the mot tester said it’s aticking on near side . Stripped it and the adjuster was solid not letting the shoes go back in just stuck against the drum thanks for your help

I believe the metal pipe is the IRD breather pipe and the other is the Turbo Breather pipe with filter attached

The turbo filter looks to have a pipe on both ends, which isn't correct.

No idea where that braided pipe goes as I don't recognise it as from a TD4.
