I nearlly run into another car this morning Help Hi Garry You do not say if it is a petrol or diesel, but it sounds like a servo problem,the main thing to check is the vaccume pipes for a split/blockage,if it is a diesel check the vac pump is working ok, if all the vac system is ok , its poss the servo its self, and poss a replacment, I think you can get a seal repair kit, but unless you are ofay with how to do it, I think it is easy'er to replace.
