[QUOTE 4756848, member: 9609"]bloody hell, you actually had full brake failure in a modern car - that's quite frightening. I had the servo rupture on a van back in the 90s, that was worrying moment but at least the brakes still worked, had to press hard though.[/QUOTE]
Yes - I slammed on when some idiot pulled out on me, and the line burst. Brake fluid everywhere, pedal hit the floor. I went for the 'drive into the space he came from' option and just about got away with it. It's a known fault on the car - the brake line comes out of the clip behind the wheel arch liner, where you can't see, and then the clip rubs the paint off, then it goes rusty, then it bursts. Fun times.
