things are not all bad mate, i think that you have got air in your break system, so a break fluid change would sort out that i think. as for the door, you prob just have a broken and breaking cable, more than likely it will be in the link between the door and the body, as for the pump well things sometimes just break, i have spend much money on my golf from things just wearing out. as for low MPG, what do you call low??????

All diesel brake pedals sink a little bit, it's the way they are.
