Hi,
Yet more issues with the car.
Today I was driving down hill pressed the brakes and they seemed very soft.
On pumping the brakes they worked reasonably well.
I have not yet had the opportunity to look for puddles of fluid uner the car. But one of the front brake lines was reported to be a little damaged.
Could it be something simpler as the ABS light does not flash? There are no other warning lights and only the Drivers Information System shows anything.
Does anyone have any opinion as to whether it would be safe to drive it to the garage in this condition or should I request recovery?
The rear drums are not in great shape but there was no warning for the front brakes and when the brake pedal was pressed it slows the car slowly but has no resistance until pumped.
The car sort of skidded a little to the right when the brake was pressed hard and the front right was I think the bad pipe. Would a VAG-COM scan show any fault codes if the ! comes on?
The car is a 1.2 diesel 2002 model.
