Steering efforts may be slightly increased while braking or parking Very interesting.

Sounds like the problem described is exactly how every hydroboost system has worked that I've had since I don't remember when (1980, or something).

Guess when the new ones fail, they'll be just as good as they used to be....

Has nothing to do with it, but....
Reminded me of a label I saw on a pharmaceutical.
"Do not use for the other use"
Just struck me kinda' funny.


BTW:
Thanks for the info
