120 GLS Brake hissing sound when pressed


Nikiku

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to bleed my brakes and get them working, but when i press the brake pedal, I hear a hissing sound. It' coming a top of the fuel tank(somewhere in that area.). where is the bleeder valve in this car?

That doesn't sound right, are you sure the hissing is from the brakes, is the brake fluid level going down and if so do you know where all the brake fluid is exiting the system.

 

Usual bleed points are at each wheel.  Have a look at the appropriate parts drawing. - https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/sk+105+20+30+35+36+garde/sko/1983-106/6/

 

ETA: It has been over 30 years since I had an Estelle 2 and the cars were under warranty and Dealership serviced so I don't remember the braking system.

Do these have a servo (it's been about 30 years since I worked on one, I can't even remember which end the fuel tank's in))? Sounds more like vacuum escaping to me. 

 

*Waits for someone to go full Sheldon Cooper on me because I said "Vacuum Escaping", which is a physical impossibility

Where Is the servo, could it not be repaired rather than replaced?

I can't but imagine it behind the rear seats with the battery
