Does it need to be replaced? No its pretty easy, unhook and unbolt from behind the glovebox and remove the master cylnder from the engine bay side. About 6 nuts and 1 clip from memory Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 Yes ...you will have to bleed the brakes as the master cylinder needs to come off the booster to get the booster out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 I didn't need to bleed the brakes when swapping the booster, all you have to do is unbolt the master cylinder, slide it out, unbolt the booster and slide it out, then put the in replacement. Having said that it, it takes some convincing to get the booster in and out as there is a limitation on space to move it in and out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats because the master cylinder is in the way... how hard is it to bleed brakes ? 10 minutes work and no risk of damaging anything Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
