I Seem to remember a topic regarding brake pressure or lack of it in my case on here sometime ago,I've towed my caravan with my 06 d3 down to south Wales today and had no issues until I had to wait at temporary lights on a downhill gradient,it stopped ok but on tickover with my foot on the brake pedal I had to apply a lot more pressure and had to apply the park brake after the pedal felt solid and it felt like it wasn't doing a lot, once I'd pulled off and carried on with the journey it was fine,it passed its mot last week with no problems can anyone shed any light on the problem? Thanks

Your profile doesn't say what model/year you have, but I assume that you haven't had the Brake recall done yet? Oil in the Brake servo is the likely candidate, get it to your LR dealer Pronto! Bodsys Brake Bible

It's a late 06 S model,does/will it get fixed under some kind of warranty by Landrover,is there a time limit if it has a vin number that was listed in the origional recall,there's nothing in the service book before i bought the car 18 months ago to say this was done and I'm only the second owner,sorry for all the questions but I'm concerned about what could happen

Go to your nearest Landrover dealer and they should do it free of charge.
