That sounds like normal servo action/noise. To trigger brake system fault normally it would be an ABS fault or low fluid level or faulty brake light switch.

You need to get codes read to be 100%

Yep, I figured. Sorry I'm not in the area any more. If you don't get any response from Bentleykev (his profile says he was last online on the 4th Jan, so I'm not optimistic) then I know a good mechanic in Upton.

He doesn't have Planet, but he does have good diagnostic gear that's pretty accurate (when he does a Peugeot he rings me to confirm his analysis!), and he fixed my 306 which had this problem.

His number his 0797 340 2021 and his name is Steve. He also does services and repairs for a few Merseyside based members.

You can test servo quite easily by pumping pedal until hard keep foot on pedal and start engine pedal should drop almost immediately to where it usually is.
My 307 cc has just suffered hard brake pedal in mornings it turns out it was the small one way valve on the servo ÂŁ12 later brakes work.
The hissing sound is normal its the servo working.
