Brake servo

    I've an old 3061.9td with a brake servo that's starting to fail. (It
    constantly hisses from the input rod area when I apply the brakes so I think
    the diaphragm is split/leaking) So how does the old servo come out? I
    guessing that the intercooler must come off first but then it still looks
    tight, and I'm hoping and praying that I don't have to remove the dashboard
    to gain access to the bolts!

    Anyone BTDT? Is the servo a dealer or scrapyard only part?

    Cheers Julian.

    sorry to say you will have to get behind the dash, if you lay on your
    back upside down you should be able to see the 4 bolts that hold the
    servo plate.if the bolts have had there heads welded you should be able
    to just undo the nuts and let the unit full off in your hand .. good
    luck,

    Thanks Chris. So not that bad then, best if I remove the driver's seat so I
    can lay on my back easier.

    I see Euro Car Parts list a servo, that'll be cheaper than a Pug dealer.
