Hey guy's so I have been noticing my brakes are getting a bit stiff on a downhill and hard as f when I used it once and step on it again. Stop this afternoon and opend the Bonnet for a quick inspection found that vacuum pipe fitting from the pump to the booster pipe is a bit loose. How do remove the fitting or do I need to remove the whole pump to replace oring?

Re: Vacuum pump booster pipe
There was a post not too long ago about this... someone had similar issues.
I had a Bosch as OE and it leaked oil, replaced with a Borschung and that particular fitting is a lot more solid.
But yes replacing the pump is probably better
