Hissing Noise with Brake Pedal
Hey guys,
I just noticed recently that when my car has been sitting outside in the hot summer weather, that there is a loud hissing noise that sounds like gas escaping when I depress the brake pedal.
This is regardless if I have started the car yet and the engine is on/off. I didn't pinpoint the sound, but it seems like it's coming from under the dash area. It keeps making that sound even if I pump the brake pedal a few times.
Have any of you experienced this? What could this be and do I need to have anything checked?
I had C5 fronts done many months ago and haven't had any problems.
Thanks,
Will
