Mk4 Fiesta, 1998. 1.25l Petrol 5dr Ghia model. No ABS.
Failed MOT on "little or no braking effort" on both rear brakes. Handbrake only working at 58% efficiency.
Tester thought rear wheel cylinders had seized so replaced them. No change. There appears to be no fluid pressure reaching the rear wheels. That garage says this is beyond their skills now.
Any ideas? Or a recommendation for a garage near Oxford that could do further investigation? I can't really drive the car other than carefully to garages now I know that the rear brakes are defective.
Front brakes are both working perfectly and the brake fluid was changed (along with the rear cylinders) in March 2008; 10,000 miles ago.
All suggestions greatly appreciated as we're a bit stumped here!
Thanks,
Tony
