  • remote brake servos - 1981 bmw 635csi 7 Sep 2006 (Forum)
    Hi all, I drive a 1981 BMW 635csi which has an unusual brake circuit. As the car is RHD there was no room for BMW to fit a servo behind the brake pedal on this model so BMW opted to use twin remote servos instead. Each servo has a "line in" from the master cylinder and then one servo powers one
  • Testing your Brakes! 23 Aug 2009 (Forum)
    Reading the thread about Audis stuck on your rear and braking etc, I just wonder if any others ever actually test and practise hard braking. When I say hard I mean HARD. I quite often find a deserted road, pick a marker spot, get up to a good speed and stand on the brake pedal as hard as I

  • Electronic parking brake. 16 Feb 2018 (Forum)
    Anyone else tried pressing it while the car is still moving? I had a renault scenic hire car some time back, thought I'd give it a go on an empty road at about 15mph. It braked as though an elephant had left foot braked! If you have, are all these systems the same?
