Hi all thanks for the help I had a look and found that if you pumped the brake and put your foot down hard then turned the car on the pedal should go down if the vacume is ok my foot stayed still.
So a vacume problem I looked and looked and found
and this
followed by
so off to get a new bit 95p later great brakes.
Thanks for the help.

It did happen before that is why I started the checks and found the front bads were down then the warning came up so all I have done was needed.
I will have a look and see if that is the problem I was tols it could be the flex pipe to the front getting old and plowing up but they look good.
Thanks for the advice.

I went round and made sure I had no air in the lines Sunday and all seemed ok then bag it is back today went to brake and hard pedal next to no brakes then fine realy good brakes 
so any idea what is going on I am not losing any fluid and the level is fine?? :-?

HI I did the back disc's and pads at the weekend and found I had oil over one of the shock absorbers and both had lumps on them like rust under the metal so that will have to be the next job before the MOT. But what do you think about lowering the car?? or stay standard. 
And what should I be looking for, :-?
I have never done this before and would like to get it right.
Have tryed the web ut with out much help seems to be about £500.00 to do the lot a bit over what I can aford.
by the way it is an Elite 1997 with all the bits and I want to keep it for two years min so spend a bit know and it will do me.
