SOLVED I don't know why, but the Germans do like to put vac pumps on to boost the signal to the brake booster. They failed back when I still worked on Audis, guess nothing has changed. Back then we would just bypass them and the cars stopped just fine on the engine vacuum.

SOLVED I'd like to see the pump and be told why it has a vacuum pump on a non-diesel. Now if it was an air pump for emissions control purposes that's different.

I have no idea why it has vacuum pumps except to make general comments about the design of German cars. :) --Ian _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower
