went out to bleed the brakes,had a new master cylinder in the office,so i thought ,ill change that while i was there,no problems on the change,uuntil i went to bleed the brakes,drivers side wheel off,bleed right side no problems,went to bleed the left and nothing no fluid,no air bubbles,so i had a suck on the pipe,at last fluid and bubbles of air,but there is no pressure in the left hand brake system?????h3lp,i wore my daughters leg out making her pump the brake

intermitnent no brakes at slow speeds below 10 mph in traffic.

When you say no brakes.do you mean extreme pressure needed on pedal to give any braking or no brakes at all.I could be wrong but would guess at the vacuum pump on alternator.I assuming the vacuum pump is on alternator.would think the pipe is split.I dont know the car so I may well be wrong?

Brake servos on 4405's give trouble as the miles mount up - we've done three in the last 6 months.
Whereas master cylinders don't generally give trouble.
Rear disc brakes? If so, that makes bleeding the system real fun.

OK, I'm just telling you what I have come across over the last 6-9 months.
By the way - I'm a Peugeot Technician. I'll leave it at that.
