Hi, new registrant and avid visitor of the forum. I think its great and have found many answers here.

I'm currently trying to locate the electrical vacuum pump on my car and cant seem to find it, can someone please point me in the direction off its placement?

Much appreciated,
Riaan

Thanks for helping trying to locate this pesky pump. I investigated the location you suggested and there does not seem to be a vacuum pump there. I took a few pictures to maybe clarify

This was located in front of the driver side (RF) front wheel. It seems to be the vacuum container and there is no wires running to this item.

There does not seem to be anything else of interest on here.

This is the passenger side (LF) and shows only the liquid receiver. No vacuum pump here.

There seems to be a pump on this. Don't know what its called, but all the brake lines come together here.

I appreciate any insight you may have

Sorry to put through extra work, it is on the left side. Left side is driver's side for USA.
