I have worked in the cockpit to adjust the brake pedal after refurbishment of the brake booster. I had too much play when i pressed the pedal even after adjusting the excentric bolt in the engine bay.
I made a new rod between the pedal and the booster +5 mm length with my lathe . But i saw this plastic piece of a "ring" on the floor....!( photo below) may be it comes from the brake switch?
I wonder where it comes from?
Any idea?
BTW i made an error about the length of the rod .... i made it 1 cm longer than the one in the car. I tested it in the garage : i pushed the car and it moved freely. So i decided to test on the road the pedal play. It was fine at the beginning but after a very short drive the car could not go forward ! and i stopped on the road side completely stucked !
I waited 1/2 an hour ..... and then i pushed the car freely .
I came back to the garage without braking....! quite stressing
I took out the rod , grinded 5 mm , put it back on the pedal.
And now i have a smooth brake pedal for the 3first cm of push and then a strong respons as i wanted.
And i can now adjust with the excentric bolt at the brake booster in the engine bay.
Conclusion: i am happy tonight ! after all those mistakes
