Took the Octavia to head to my mother's birthday shindig yesterday.
Approaching a queue of traffic on the m74, the brakes felt odd.
300 yards later on the sliproad and I had no footbrake to speak of.
mildly troublesome.
I ditched it with a few profanities and went about my business.
Today I managed to get a look- and it looks like a rear wheel cylinder has failed comprehensively.
luckily a local parts emporium had replacements in stock- so I purchased 2 and some brake fluid.
I'll replace both I think as it was not a pleasant experience
