Why do I hear a hissing sound?den - 2000 Cadillac Catera - Brakes - 10/26/2011There is a hissing sound when I apply the brakes.
-
10/26/2011 MasterTechIf you are hearing the sound inside the passenger compartment while you are braking, the problem could be in the power brake booster. It is a vacuum canister that can leak when bad. You hear the leak as a "hiss". The brake booster is located behind the brake master cylinder.

10/17/2011 JimmNeed more information, are you referring to the front or rear wheel bearings / hub assemblies? The front wheel bearings or rear wheel bearings are available as integral with the hub assemblies and may be purchased individually; as in - front or rear single units. Try the many on-line auto parts sources, such as; www.RockAuto.com or www.autopartswarehouse.com for the replacement parts.

What's wrong with my brakes. I can push the brake all the way to the floorpapawhite_2010 - 1993 Cadillac DeVille - Brakes - 10/11/2011I can hear a little clicking sound when the car is on if I barely press the brake. I just put some break fluid in but the brake still goes to the floor-
10/11/2011 MikeIf the brake fluid was empty, there is a leak in the system. It could be the master cylinder, but the entire brake system needs to be inspected.

What are the sizes of brake lines needed for my 1977 commercial chassis cadillac !cadman - 1980 Cadillac Commercial Chassis - Brakes - 10/10/2011I am putting poly armour flexible brake lines on , and need to know if I need quarter , sixteenth and six mm lines for this job ! Also , is flaring done the same as on steel brake lines ?
-
10/10/2011 HouseCallAutoPoly armour flexible brake lines are nothing more than steel brake lines that have a vinyl coat on them to prevent rust. Treat them as you would regular steel line as far as flaring also. No change. You will need to take a look, but most cars use 3/16" line but some use both 1/4" and 3/16". You have to look.

9/19/2011 Spoon Sports"I would like an estimate on the cost of fixing this problem" - Impossible without getting it scanned. It can be cheap, it can be expensive.
If its just the ABS sensor...cheap, if its the module itself...expensive...only a mechanic can give you the price and upon checking
9/21/2011 bobThanks for the reply. I have Onstar and they did diagonstic and came up with a different code the two different times I had them run diagonstic C1223 and C1227. The lights go out when turning off and then would come back on after driving car. It did not come on the last couple of times when driving car short distances.
