if it was a petrol engine, I'd say the brake servo was failing (loss of vacumm and brake servo assistance) but I don't think diesel engined brake assistance works in the same way. Perhaps someone can enlighten me.
Certainly the fact that the brake pedal is hard to operate means that there is indeed a lack of assistance as opposed to loss of pressure (fluid leak).
