This happened to my 2001 cdt and all it needed was bleeding. It has been fine now for 6 months. After only 2 weeks I would think the dealer is responsible for any breakdown repairs. Have you reported this to the dealer yet? When mine failed the dealer recovered the car, repaired it and delivered it back.
Good luck.
Alan.
