Abstract
The invention relates to a vehicle hydraulic brake system having a traction control unit and a dynamic driving control unit. To enable building up pressure quickly with a return feed pump, even when the master cylinder is not actuated, a precharge pump, which is mounted on the storage container of the master cylinder and can be made to communicate with the master cylinder through a valve that is mounted in the storage container following the master cylinder. When the master cylinder is not actuated, pressure can be built up in the master cylinder and thus in the vehicle brake system using the precharge pump.
