      **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 far

            Well look at the good side Muz you've got a spare now, I know it's expensive but at least you won't have to order anything and wait for it next time one of your brake chambers fails and it's a truck shit always happens.
