Servo Cylinders

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Land Rover Range Rover and 1999 Land Rover Range Rover. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

There are 2 servo cylinders which perform 5 functions. They combine pressure from the hydrostatic and power circuits to brake calipers. They create a brake-feel at the brake pedal. They provide hydrostatic (master cylinder) braking through servo cylinders to calipers when there is no power circuit pressure to servo cylinders. They provide braking from the power circuit and from hydrostatic fluid remaining in servo cylinder, in event of no hydrostatic circuit pressure from master cylinder. They provide ABS control to front calipers in response to pressure modulations in power circuit.
