Hey guys, when I compress the brake peddle I hear a "pshh" sound. I still brake perfectly fine and its only when I fully compress the peddle. It sort of sounds like I'm using a foot pump. The sound is only faint and as cute as the little sound is, I don't want my brakes to be bad.

Any clue? Normal brake sound? Fully sick brake turbo?

Can you reproduce the sound when the car is stationary?

Coming from under the bonnet where the brake booster/master cylinder is located?

Could be the seal in the booster, they do deteriorate over time and will eventually leak
