| Description of the problem | After the car has sat idle for several hours when i depress the brake pedal to start the car i get a whoooomp sound. I took the car to the dealer and was told that after the car sits idle for awhile the air goes out of the breaking system and therefore it makes this sound at start up. My question are why, after two years of ownership, is it happening now? And, why isn't the part allowing air to escape replaced? |
