Scania brake chamber

**Update**
The old chamber was lying on the bench .. so I decided to split it, expecting a burst diaphram. Not so .. all that was wrong was the push off spring inside the chamber had broken, thereby not releasing the brake. I called the stealer to ask if there was a service kit, since my new ('work shop manual') said there was.
I was told categorically at the start of this thread by the dealer that there wasnt a service option .. and you had to buy a complete chamber which I did .. for £320+VAT, which later became £212 after I checked the 'specials' list
Well you CAN get a service kit to repair the unit containing a new diaphram, rubbet boot, spring, and a myriad of small seals for ......... ......... £24 !!
So .. £320 down to £24 ? go figure whos at it ? I'll reserve judgement till Ive seen the kit to make sure its all the right bits, but it looks like it so farPlease don't PM me for plant advice.. thanks ..
