yes, the new world of no infernal combustion engines! I had to buy some fossil fuel the other day (1st time this year) and it was horrifying - really expensive and smelly etc. + it did not last that long too.....
it does have regen braking (why waste all that energy into your brakes when it can re charge the battery - free power), but you still use the service brakes occasionally .
The vacuum pump is in the engine bay. I will check all the hoses, but the way it only leaks when you press the pedal makes me think the hoses must be fine.
ill pull off the dash, run the vacuum pump and see if the leak is apparent, hopefully its just the seal b/w the booster and m/cylinder, point noted re re building the m/cylinder if its removed - may as well do it.
ill also check the link b/w the pedal and booster.
thanks for the advice.
