Bleeding the hydraulic brake system
Bleeding the hydraulic brake system is necessary to remove air, which significantly reduces braking efficiency. Air can enter the hydraulic drive due to depressurization of the system during repairs or replacement of...

Checking and replacing the brake booster
Examination The brake booster increases the force applied to the brake pedal, thereby making the vehicle easier to control. The operating principle of the vacuum brake booster is based on the use of vacuum in the intake...

Adjusting the parking brake
