Revised Warranty (Updated table)
Customer states:
• After a short stationary period, the vehicle sporadically does not start and there is a hard brake pedal concern.
Technical Background
Due to dirt particles in the non-return valve in the vacuum hose for the brake servo, the vacuum in the brake servo
cannot be held on a parked vehicle.
When starting the vehicle the usual brake force is not enough to get the start authorization of the brake light
switch.
Normally, a vacuum of 600 to 950 mbar is reached.
Depending on the parking position (slope) or the user behavior the vehicle is parked with a small vacuum within
12 hours the vacuum may drop by up to 400 mbar.
Production Solution
Not applicable.
Service
Proceed as follows:
• Check the following components for possible damages: vacuum hose; sensor G608; connectors, seals, valves.
• Check for leaks according to Elsa >> Brake System >> 47 Hydraulic Components >> Vacuum System.
• Check for small cracks in the vacuum hose or in the connection points between check valves.
• If damages/cracks/leaks are found: Replace the necessary components according to: Elsa Repair Manual,
Elsa >> Brake System >> 47 Hydraulic Components >> Vacuum System.
Warranty
Claim Type:
• 110 up to 48 Months/50,000 Miles.
• G10 for CPO Covered Vehicles – Verify Owner.
• If the vehicle is outside any warranty, this Technical Service Bulletin is
informational only.
