Comp

Bra
k
e Booster
1.
1. Chec k all
hoses and connections. All unused vacuum connectors should be capped. Hoses and their connections
should be correctly secured and in good condition with no holes and no collapsed areas. Inspect the valve on the
brake booster for damage.
2. 2. Check the hydraulic brake system for leaks or low fluid.
3. 3. With the transmission in PARK, stop the engine and apply the parking brake. Pump the brake pedal several times
to exhaust all vacuum in the system.
4. 4. With the engine switched off and all vacuum in the system exhausted, appl y the brake pedal and hold it down.
Start the engine. If the vacuum system is operating, the brake pedal will tend to move downward under constant
foot pressure. If no motion is felt, the vacuum booster system is not functioning.
5. 5. Remove the vacuum hose from the brake booster. Manifold vacuum should be available at the brake booster end
of the hose with the engine at idle speed and the transm ission in PARK or NEUTRAL. Make sure that all unused
vacuum outlets are correctly capped, hose connectors are correctly secured and vacuum hoses are in good
condition. When it is established that manifold vacuum is available to the brake booster, connect the vacuum hose
to the brake booster and repeat Step 3. If no downward movement of the brake pedal is felt, install a new brake
booster.
6. 6. Operate the engine for a minimum of 10 seconds at a fast idle. Stop the engine and allow the vehicle to stand for
10 minutes. Then, apply th e brake pedal with approximately 89 N ( 20lb) of force. The pedal feel (brake
application) should be the same as that noted with the engine running. If the brake pedal feels hard (no power
assist), install a new valve and then re peat the test. If the brake pedal still feels hard, in stall a new brake booster.
If the brake pedal movement feels spongy, bleed the brak e system. For additional information, refer to General
Procedures in this section.
Bra k
e Master Cylinder
Usual
l
y, the first and strongest
indicator of anything wrong in the brake syst em is a feeling through the brake pedal. In
diagnosing the condition of the brake master cylinder, check pedal feel as evidence of a brake concern. Check for brake
warning lamp illumination and the brake fluid le vel in the brake master cylinder reservoir.
Normal Conditio
ns
The fo
llowing conditions are considered norm
al and are not indications that the brake master cylinder is in need of repair.
New bra
ke systems are designed to produc
e a pedal effort that is not as hard as in the past. Complaints of light
pedal efforts should be compared to the pedal effort s of another vehicle of the same model and year.
The fl
uid level will fall with brake pad wear.
Abnormal Conditions
•
NOTE: Prior to carrying out any diag
nosis, make sure the brake system warning indicator is functional.
Changes in the brake pedal feel or brake pedal travel are in dicators that something could be wrong in the brake system. The
diagnostic procedure and techniques use brake pedal feel, warning indicator illu mination and low brake fluid level as
indicators to diagnosing brake system co ncerns. The following conditions are cons idered abnormal and indicate that the
brake master cylinder is in need of repair:
Brake ped a
l goes down fast. Th
is could be caused by an ex ternal or internal leak.
Brake pedal goes down slowly
. This could be
caused by an internal or external leak.
Brak
e pedal is low or feels spongy. This condition may be ca
used by no fluid in the brake master cylinder, reservoir
Page 319 of 2490

cap ven
t holes clogged or air in the hydraulic system.
Brake ped
al effort is excessive. This ma
y be caused by a bind or obstruction in the pedal/linkage, a faulty non return
valve, booster or insuffi cient booster vacuum.
R
ear brakes lock up during light pedal force. This may
be caused by damaged brake pads, an incorrectly adjusted
parking brake, a partially applied parking brake, a damaged ABS sensor or bearing failure.
Brake ped
al effort erratic. This condition could be caused by the brake booste
r or incorrectly installed brake pads.
Brake warning indicator i
s on. This may be caused
by low fluid level or float assembly damaged.
No
n Pressure Leaks
Any reduced fluid v
olume in the brake ma
ster cylinder reservoir condition may be caused by two types of none pressure
external leaks.
Type 1: An external leak may be occur at the master cylinder reservoir cap because of incorre ct positioning of gasket and
cap. Reposition cap and gasket.
Type 2: An external leak may occur at th e reservoir mounting seals. Repair such a leak by installing new seals and make
sure that the reservoir retainin g bolt is correctly installed.

CAUTI O
N: The Brembo caliper is aligned to

be taken not to disturb this alignment. When removing the ca liper; remove the bolts that secure the anchor bracket to the
hub carrier only. DO NOT loos en any other caliper bolts.
Brembo calipers and discs provide higher -performance braking using the existing hydraulic braking system. The brakes are
installed to the vehicle using unique hub carr iers, hubs, hydraulic hoses and disc shields.
The rear brake disc is a single piece co nstruction which is ventilated and cross-drilled. The disc is mounted on the wheel
studs and is clamped between the wheel and hub. Cooling ducts run through the ce nter of the brake disc to provide the
required ventilation to keep the disc cool under operating conditions.
Modified disc shields are installed to accommodate the larger diameter discs.
Due to the use of fixed calipers in place of the standard floating caliper, certain lateral dimensions on the hub carriers and
hubs are critical to achieve correct cleara nce and operation of the brakes. Therefore special hub carriers and hubs set within
a certain tolerance are inst alled with Brembo brakes.
The four cylinder brake caliper is rigidly attached to the vert ical link via an anchor bracket. The caliper is a split assembly
with each side of the caliper, housing two pistons. The two-pairs of opposed pistons act direct ly on the brake pads mounted
one each side of the disc.
