Hi,


I am looking to replace the brake booster on my 996 C2 (1999). Diaphragm failure I think.. (Lots of hissing from booster and a hard brake pedal. Still got vacuum at check valve)


I've read that the the brake system needs to be split, but I wondered if there is enough movement in the master cylinder and pipes to change the booster without disconnecting any pipes and leaving the hydraulics in tact?


Any advice would be gratefully received...


Many thanks




Steven Clarke

Hi Steven and welcome. The 2 best sources on tech info are Rennlist and our very own 911Doctor. You could try PMing the Doc.

I had a GF who suffered diaphragm failure once and caused lots of worry for a few weeks - but that's another story.

Good luck
