Peugeot 205 diesel vacuum pump

Unread post by 205alex »

Hi, I am currently having issues with a hard brake pedal a low revs, enough so that it has come up as an mot fail. At higher revs it seems to produce enough vacuum to keep the pedal soft.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience in replacing the diaphragm of the vacuum pump vs the whole pump as these are available at about half the price ?
Initially I will try replacing the hose and belt to try and get more vacuum, if anyone has any other tips/experience in this it would be much apreciated!

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
