Listen for noises from the booster...in the engine bay...while the engine is running? Wouldn't be able to hear anything but the engine running.
Brake pad material on the rotors??..WTF? On a brake rotor that is a flat surface, where is this brake pad material going to be?
Before you go 'seriously doubting' other peoples ideas, have a look at your own ideas and how shallow and uneducated they are
How the hell are you going to pump the brake pedal, from the engine bay side for starters? Use some common sense, before commenting there... If the booster is leaking air, pumping the brake pedal from inside the car (unless you can describe a way to do it from the engine bay side), you can hear air escaping....Well I can and I need hearing aids for both ears because I am going deaf
Brake pad material on rotors.....A seizing caliper, will cause the brake pad to stay in direct contact with the rotor....Now tell me, having a brake pad constantly stuck to a rotor won't leave some material stuck to it? Hang on, another shallow idea.
And seriosuly doubted idea....Link pins.....Go find a commodore with stuffed link pins (shouldn't be too hard)....Take it for a drive, over bumps and tell me if you can hear them rattle? Considering the Op is only hearing this noise UNDER BRAKING, it makes perfect sense to the normal person, that it'd be doubtful it'd be link pins, because it only seems to occur UNDER BRAKING, not general driving conditions
So yes, my ideas are shallow I admit it....I've described some possibilities and how I came to these conclusions....Where are yours? A stupid response of,pumping a brake pedal from the engine bay side and hoping you can hear escaping air, with a motor running....Need I say more?
