Hey Mate. Welcome.

Both are auto, both have same boost gauge and both are hooked into same hose, reading pressure off the inlet manifold. Mine reads 9psi his 5psi

Genius.. the bleeding system for tricky brakes works. real long 5mm clear vinyl hose from mitre10 from each bleed nipple to the resevoir on the master, with a couple mates gentle pedal pumping, one guy keeping the resevoir topped up and the hoses dipped in the fluid, the other keeping an eye under ...

and now the brakes are worse.

I am admitting defeat and taking it to the doctor.

Tried a trick I read about, tapping the calipers with a soft faced hammer, did get more air out.but still don't think I have much in the way of rear brakes. I saw a master cylinder bleeding kit that screwed into the ports on the cylinder and allowed you to bleed the cylinder.and keep circulating ...

Thanks Pete, I did notice and fix the split and loose hoses on the sensor below the vin plate, I will check the others, but question on vacuum leak, if I had vacuum leak, would my brakes not be harder to apply, where I get a hard pedal when pumped up with engine off that pretty much sinks to the ...

bled the rears again because I put the new pads in and figured why not. still the same, I can pump the pedal and make pressure when the engine is off. when I start the car the pedal will go to the firewall. still got working front brakes though. with the car running, I can pump quickly and build up ...

If the truck has a leaking master when I got it and brake fluid leaked back on the booster and then ran down everywhere, would / could the booster be damaged ? There had been fluid all around and had eaten paint off the engine bay when I bought it. But even with no booster assistance, I should have ...

new pads on the rear, and went to see a mate who had a theory that bleeding just with a hose into a container vs a 1 man bleeding kit would be the go.. I still have no rear brakes. We rebled the master and all 4 brakes. I have nothing in the rear according to the VTNZ machine occasionally they get ...

took the other brake apart, put some more grease on the sliders but even before that they slide. with a 1 man bleeder kit on the caliper I can push the piston back by hand and watch the fluid come out so calipers are receiving fluid and can slide. The pads are not down to the wear indicator yet so I ...

thanks, yes will pull the brakes apart now and have a poke about, see what I can see.

thanks guys, popped in to my local supercheap and the manager looked things up on their computer, same part for terrano / pathfinder only difference we spotted was on the petrol version there are two versions of brake master one has a 15/16ths inch bore the other a 1 inch bore, he said that could be ...

Thats confusing. I'm looking at a wd21 service manual, there is a section for rear disks and a section for the model with hydraulic rear drums. I don't really know how to tackle that.. last brake master cost me just under $200 special price. Can someone recommend a garage to take it to so I can just ...

thanks for replies, the times time the vtnz man had the pedal firm up under foot they came on strong. So on random occasion, they work. I have rear disks, and I checked the pads, they seemed fine. There is also an independent cable driven hand brake which has shoes and the drum is built into the ...

hydraulic discs and cable drum for handbrake.

should I hear an air noise from inside the truck when I step on the pedal ? it doesn't sound like it's leaking, just sucking in air when i push the pedal in.

I have the 3 port brake master if that helps, 1 goes to the rear the others appear for left and right.

thanks for the reply. before I changed the brake master I was getting 350/350 front and 50/70 on the rear thats on the vtnz brake test machine bled it and the numbers all went up rear went to 80/90 still really poor rear brake performance. now with the next cylinder on I initially had a reading ...

If it is a standard car stereo all those signals would expect 12v I would imagine 24v would upset things, chuck a multimeter on the wires and see what voltage you are getting. Make sure it matches the specs of the stereo.
Hope that helps.

Hey guys, need another set of eyes / brain on this one. The short version: got no rear brakes, have bled and replaced the brake master but still almost no brakes. Brake pedal pumps up firm when truck is off and kinda sinks to the floor under light pressure when truck is running. The long version ...

Hi guys, I'm a recent Terrano owner 1994 wide body ? has flares.. TD27T Auto, seems almost totally stock aside from something in the engine bay, a vacuum line blocked off with a screw, not sure what thats in aid of. I'd like to do a bit of 4wd haven't done the woodhill 4wd training yet, I guess ...
