| Description of the problem | Vehicle, is making a rubberish noise in the brake booster when the brake pedal is pushed down, brakes in the vehicle are relatively new and when required to a hard brake vehicle does not respond well. I had to refill the brake fluid reservoir with a little bit of fluid not much. I believe it might be leacking small amounts of fluid to the booster over time, i bought the vehicle from someone else known to me, so i have known the car for quite some time and its being having this issue for a while now. I have seen many threads about this problem, which must be solved with nissan. This should not be a problem at 53 000 miles. |
