Hi all I’ve been have small issues with my new edge mustangs brakes for about 18 months now and today they have become big issues and here are the problems
The brake pedal is very slow to retune up from fully depressed (engine running)
when at idle and you depress the break pedal the rpm drops but will come back up not sure if this is normal?
when in neutral and engine running and you depress the brake pedal all you can hear is a hissing noise, is this normal ? I think not
when driving the brakes seem to be make of jelly and do nothing unless I put in a lot of effort and I mean a lot of effort.
the ABS is not working as well, I basically have to stand on the pedal to get the front wheels to lock up but no ABS is kicking in nor is there any ABS failed warning light coming on, the ABS light is working and does come on for its check when the ignition is turned on and then is goes out a few seconds later.
I have changed the pads and discs and fluid, check all brake lines, bleed them gif knows how many times and the master cylinder but still no bloody joy.
Please help me and throw me some ideas on what to try and do.
Is it the booster that’s broken ? If so how can I check it?
Many thank
Adam
