My Sedici has developed a brake problem and so far the main dealer has been unable to find the cause. The problem is noticeable at slow speeds when the brake pedal is depressed the brakes are applied but the pedal gradually travels to the floor. The problem is also present when the car is stationary and the ignition switched off, which rules out any electrical problem. If the brakes are applied sharply, as in an emergency stop, the pedal does NOT travel to the floor. The initial diagnosis was the brake master cylinder which I replaced with one from a Suzuki SX4 but this did not cure the fault. The mechanic has suggested that the ABS pump could be at fault but is this likely with the ignition switched off? The dealer has been in contact with Japan and the factory in Hungary but they have been unable to help. Any ideas would be most welcome, thanks, Ken

'Honest John, of the Telegraph may have a view?
He's very good at replying ...

I'd join Pistonheads and put your query on the Forum below - lots of very knowledgeable people on there who would love a go at diagnosing what a dealer can't!

Fixed now?

Hi Can you tell us all what it was so if anyone else has the same problem we will know what to do?

No thread on Pistonheads that I can see.
