The main brake cylinder is not repairable, in case of failure it is replaced as a set. The main brake cylinder is removed together with the brake booster. To separate the brake pedal from the brake booster, a special tool is required, such a tool is available in specialized workshops. In addition, a repair kit of plugs is required. To suck out brake fluid, Audi workshops use a device for filling brake fluid and removing air VAG 5234. A well-functioning siphon can be useful.
