My Mk1 Golf of 20 years is off of the road with a failed brake servo unit. Vaccuum hose and valves OK. Probably a perforated diaphragm. Part Number (from the old unit) 172612105M
Any advice on how or where to look for a replacement in UK. Difficult to search easily from 8000 miles away in the middle of a rural area. N.B. Payments would be from UK and delivery would be to UK. My problem to get someone to bring it to Zimbabwe.
This doesn't look like a serviceable unit (sealed) and I'm not sure how one would check that a unit from a breakers would still function. A long way to transport a 'lemon' So I guess it would have to be new.
Best regards,

Best bet is to look for a breakers or eBay - one that gives you a warranty on the unit.
A lot of people change to the later mk2 16V 9" servo and 22mm master cylinder - there is a guide here:
