Hi All

I've got a GQ patrol with terrible brakes. The pedal is very hard, but the braking performance is way below acceptable. It doesn't seem hydraulic as the pedal is nice and firm and doesnt sink to the floor if you keep your foot on it.

If I do press really hard, it will pull up, but the front left consistently locks. I do have to try hard to get that to happen.

I've tested the booster by pressing the pedal and than turning on the engine. I can feel the booster working and pulling the pedal down further. Aso if I turn it off and wait a minute I can feel the booster work and after a few pedal pumps the vacuum assist is gone.

So...any ideas what it could be. The discs and pads do need replacing, but I would of expected better brakes than that.

cheers
Damo
