Been having problems with braking lately, pedal going hard under heavy or sustained braking that feels like a loss of vacuum.
Have changed all the vacuum hoses from the inlet manifold to the brake booster/servo but problem still exists and now showing fault code:
00812 - Brake Pressure Release Solenoid (F84)
Possible Causes
Have enquired with the stealers and the booster/servo is a discontinued item, can't find any decent second hand ones (seeing as you have to drop the engine to change it according to Elsa-win I don't really want to put a second hand one in anyway, I'd rather put a new one in and fit and forget).
Can find aftermarket ones from ATE but only for LHD cars which seems slightly ridiculous so my questions are........
Has anyone ever sourced a new brake booster/servo for a RHD car? If so where from as I'm going round in circles at the moment!!
Also has anyone ever had the 00812 fault code and solved the issue without having to change the brake booster/servo?
Thanks in advance.
