[QUOTE="Davidmann, post: 498924, member: 20887"] Evening all, Just returned from a really good 1000 mile round trip to Cornwall in our 69 bay with no problems apart from the last 5 miles. Basically, had to slam on the brakes to avoid a dodgy driver and the pedal lost pressure. After this, the van still braked but I would say it was half as efficient and pedal travel was significantly more. The brake reservoir still is at the same level as before. Obviously, I will get under it to check out but wondered if these symptoms were pointing to something simple or really obvious? I replaced all flexi hoses, cylinders and brake fluid last year and have bled the brakes to death. MOT tester even commented on how efficient the brakes were. Any advice would be welcomed! Cheers, Dave. [/QUOTE]
