    I've had a brake booster fail and loss of braking power didn't happen - you just need to push harder. After all, it's an assist on pedal pressure, not affecting the actual brake lines. But as thousands have already said, a poor workman blames his tools. I have to say the roof held up better than I expected. "Brit piece of crap" my a**e. I guess "computer failure" is unprovable so a better excuse than "I didn't know what I was doing."

    Ok not having had a TD5 yet. But surely the ECU dose not effect the brakes anyway. In other words there is not direct computor part attc to the brakes . Apart from ABS if it had it. And that will only stop the ABS working and not the brakes

    Like I said the vacuum pump is crank driven. If the engine is running you've got vacuum. Even if it isn't you've got enough assistance for a couple of stops.

    Don't try and analyse it... it just doesn't make sense.

    Not making excuses for poor technique, but does ABS work in reverse?
