Nice one Simon, so this is a direct replacement new part then?

[macdeb]

Good call Simon
Whilst on the subject of brake servos, if anyone has FI fit a check valve
I was getting overboost [leak] via servo

[MPoxon]

Thanks for that Simon. I will order a spare.

The last servo I bought was eye wateringly expensive.... EX VAT as well

Who cares its cheap fk me I dont know why I bother I presumed (obviously incorrectly) people would like a spare well hopefully its applicable to people who I know would appreciate it anyway

I appreciate it Simon, good find mate

Shame I've spermulated all me dosh on gearbox mods and flywheels

It'll have to wait, bet my servo fails the moment these things go out of stock

Phekin TVR's sure keep you skint

[ukdj]

Appreciate the heads up too, they are a great price but at 2 months delivery time arent these technically already out of stock - depends on your view point i suppose ?

[macdeb]

I'm gonna get one, even if it sits in the garage for an age, I'll have it.

Wise man, none of us can go far with a pheked servo

Nice find by Simon

How about £110 from the land where men eat snails

Sadly when you try to order it you get this popup message...

"This item is not available for the moment, we invite you to identify your vehicle to find other equivalent parts"

Boooo!!!

TBH it really surprises me this whole brake servo thing is such a challenge, you'd think there would be still be a demand for a Fiesta servo

But clearly the supply remains patchy at best

I think what we need is an alternative part from a different car that's cheap and readily available and a kit to adapt it to our pedal box, perhaps even with a master cylinder better suited to a nice caliper upgrade too

Not TRW though, personally I like OE quality and seeing that most failures on these are corrosion based which is no fault of the unit itself but its location in the TVR I certainly have never changed a failed or corroded servo on the source Ford vehicle and they were very very common in the 90's

[SILICONEKID345HP]

Is it from a Ford Fiesta ?

The TRW part is more likely to be better quality that the pattern replacement part. I have ordered a spare from Amazon, thanks for the heads up.

Mine was corrosion based failure, they do not seem to fair too well in leaky TVR foot wells

Far canal!! that is scary,

The TRW PSA328 number cross references to:

Girling 4110328

Bosch 0 986 485 090

Ford: 1666345 - 6186400 - 89FB2005BC

This company based in Berlin sells the Bosch one for £90.19 + £8 postage but ensure it is the correct part. It is listed for a Mk 3 Fiesta with Euro Car Parts but they want £220 and it is not held in stock and would be obtained from overseas anyway.
