Reply With Quoteid get the car on a ramp mate, check to see if all brake lines are ok, get the abs read for any faults oh and check the condition of the clutch slave cylinder might be knackered.
abs fail dangerous braking :[
first ive notice the brake pedal becoming very soft also the clutch pedal,
as i brake it fills like the brakes fade very bad i have to nearly stand on them to stop that's at 40mph and pulling away the car fills like it wants to totally spin up like bald tyres but there not also when i start the car the abs light stays on a little longer than the rest so ive checked the levels and they were a little low so ive topped them up and its still the same,
just some **** luck im having lately
thanks guys and anyone know about the problem please help ta benz

Dont drive it till you find the problem Ben.
ok so ive had hunt round the bottom of the car after giving her a bath/blast and found a leak,preety bad leak too. ......drip.........drip........drip........
on the rear axle n/s rear behind the shock etc,there are two brake pipes that come out of a metal box or cylinder and one is leaking(cant think if the name for it bias) also the little spring that holds the flap has come off what ever this does i dont know ,,,,
can someone let me know what this is and does thanks
The springed device is a load sensor, that bias's the brakes rewards when they sense extra weight in the car. On most cars they rust up and dont work though.
The distribution block leaking, not fun! Be a pain to change the block if its bust as no doubt everything will sheer off etc.
ta dan it looks like someone added a new pipe not long ago to it
now i know what it is i can strip down and have a look
trying to put pics up its playing up
can i buy a new one at all
Brake compensator/load valve
Fixed her thanks guys on the bias the new pipe that was fitted had no flare on the end after the nut so done a flare with the brake flaring tool and she sat a bit better and bled brakes all is like new now thanks for all your help ......,,,
