Hi All, This forum and others has given me some information but hoping someone can give me more information. Pressing brake pedal; seemingly operates as normal but maybe 3/4 of its full distance is stiffens up (ie. more than you would expect). This is only really noticeable when you're driving at high speed and need to stop or slow down in a short distance. Main issue seems to be the slow return of the brake pedal. It does return fully, but takes a few seconds to do so. Brake light remains on and brakes do seem to be 'dragging'. Will then release. Had the car in the garage for something different. They had a quick look and said discs, pads and calipers seem ok but will get it up in the air and check properly. I've been warned that it (hopefully) could be something simple such as split hose or in worst case scenario could be knackered servo. I trust the guys (used them for years) but they are not Audi specialists. They reckon that if it was a replacement servo that it might be an engine out job, which is probably not going to be cheap on a 3.2 quattro. I'll be getting it back in at the end of the month for more investigation, tyres, service and all being well an MOT. I've had a look but can't see any obvious hose damage around the servo or hear any hissing. Has anyone had this issue before on this model or another? Would it be an engine out job or can it be repaired or replaced in situ? Thanks in advance

Hi All, I have a A4 B8 3.0 TDI Quattro, It has the TPMS warning light on and Audi have said it is the Clutch Pedal Sensor. This is part of the Clutch Master Cylinder and needs replacing. Does anyone know of a DIY for this or has anyone attempted it before? I'm trying to avoid the £400 labour that Audi want to do this job. Cheers
