The blown fuse indicates that the electronic brake vacuum pump has seized. That is exactly what happened to mine. Good news is that it is a VW/AUDI part. Mine came from an AUDI A8 so was a lot less expensive than going the Bentley route.
It is fairly easy to change once the wheel arch is removed.
Here is a picture. The part number is the same. The letter at the end of the part number simply denotes the year.
The bad news might be that I also had a rough idle when the vacuum pipes over the gearbox split. As you know, it's an engine/box out job.
Hi TS. The blown fuse indicates that the electronic brake vacuum pump has seized. That is exactly what happened to mine. Good news is that it is a VW/AUDI part. Mine came from an AUDI A8 so was a lot less expensive than going the Bentley route. It is fairly easy to change once the wheel arch is removed. Here is a picture. The part number is the same. The letter at the end of the part number simply denotes the year. The bad news might be that I also had a rough idle when the vacuum pipes over the gearbox split. As you know, it's an engine/box out job. Good luck. Les.
That's what im going to replace tomorrow and hope for the best! Also we had the engine out couple months ago. I really wish i knew about the plastic hoses that are a common problem on the tranmission before we put everything back together.
