    For a temporary fix you can just remove the booster pipe and block it off, clutch operation will of course be harder but is a quick five minute get you out of trouble work around.

     

    As the servo are like £400 + and only available from Nissan your best bet is a refurb one, Jimmer ( trader on here ) can help with that as sells them for a fraction of new cost even though they are just like new see here >

    Just looking, the pipe comes out of the bulkhead above the clutch master cylinder which is located along side the brake servo on the drivers side, you can take it off there and cap it or take it off the balancer bar and cap the balancer bar as it works out the same thing.

    So I have plugged that and the leak on the booster has stopped.. But there seems to be a hiss coming from the rear of the engine. What vacuum pipes are there at the rear?

    Thats a great diagram.

    If I was to cap off the egr and the AIV vacuums at the solenoids that would eliminate all vacuum to the rear of the engine. This in turn should stop my leak. However will this course any problems with the car?
