          Is it accessible by removing the dashboard?

              Put the drivers seat as far back as possible and get underneath by the pedals. It's a fiddle, but not too difficult...

                Brake Servo Replacement DIY

                To remove the brake servo (also known as the "brake booster") you will have to work from both sides of the firewall/bulkhead. On the interior side you need to disconnect the clevis from the brake pedal. You will also have to remove the four nuts that are on the interior side of the brake servo. Getting up there is awkward and no fun but you can do it without removing the dash. It might help if you remove the driver's seat so you can lay in there better.

                On the engine bay side you will need to disconnect the brake master cylinder from the servo. I don't know if you can do that without disconnecting the brake lines from the master cylinder but I would try that first so there is less to reconnect etc.

                How our brake system works (written for C4 UrS4/S6s but works for S2s and RS2s):

                  I have fond memories of doing this, pins and needles in your arms as the blood circulation stops, dropping the nuts in your eye balls, and getting stuck upside down in the foot well while hydraulic fluid is dribbling all over the place. Fun times
