  1. Could you check if there are any updates available for my device (seat leon my2017)? Thanks so much for your help on this thread 😇
  2. I don't have the tool, I was looking to make something (e.g. from an exhaust clamp) like the Haynes manual suggests but I'll probably by another clip just in case that doesn't work & it needs to be drilled/cut out! Have you done it, if so how did you manage it?
  3. Cheers, will have to give this ago, Doesn't seem easy to get to the bolts with the expansion tank/pipes still in place but if could be worth doing.
  4. Yep, they are OK, I have changed the servo one once. A split vac pipe is unlikely to cause drag it is more likely to cause the opposite as far as I know, which isn't very much! Cheers for the help though
  5. Yep, done that, they release. It's a bit of a strange one. Research on it seems that it isn't that uncommon for the pushrod in the servo to detach from one of the four little clips which locate it in the servo. This allows it to move about and sit forward a millimeter or two. This applies the brakes slightly and covered the pilot holes in the cylinder preventing the heated, expanding fluid returning to the reservoir as the brakes overheat aggravating the problem. Can't be 100% sure its this, it could be the master cyl, but there don't seem to be many reports of these causing this problem where as there are for the servo.
  6. I'm not 100% sure that it is the servo but everything is pointing that way, changing the rear calliper / hose with new parts has not made a difference. Neither has changing the front with a used calliper from a donor car that was working OK. I wish it was something simple, but taking everything into account including posts on Fabia/Polo/Ibiza forums (inc. this one) it does seem to point to the servo. It's a fairly expensive part from Skoda and it involves removing the engine mounts/lowering the engine, not the best job al in all!
  7. The VRS has developed the dreaded N/S/F / O/S/R brake drag problem which after a bit of fuss has been trial and error identified as a brake servo fault. Skoda / TPS want £200 for a new servo (part only). Is anyone aware of any after market / cheaper solution? I don't want to fit a used part on the braking system
  8. Cheers, let me know when you're ready to proceed.
  9. I'll take it if its OK after you've checked it over and the bolt on is OK for ASZ. I have the money ready, cheers
  10. Is it the correct EGR fitting for an ASZ engine code?
  11. Could do with scanning all modules with VAG-COM / VCDS rather than just an engine fault code scanner. Could be worth searching for the brake pedal switch fault on briskoda if there is no fault code on an engine scan.
  12. You should be able to tuck the wiring below the radio (behind the little cubby hole). It is a bit tricky and does involve a bit of trial and error to get it to tuck behind there nicely but you'll get it in the end.
  13. What fault code(s) is it showing when scanned?
