Re: Front brake problem.
Harder than usual brake pedal pressure and a new sound too?
Sounds to me like a bad brake booster. When the booster diaphram ruptures you can hear a sound like air escaping when the pedal is pushed. It's actually vacumn and without it you have to push the pedal harder to make a stop. You may even notice the engine miss when you push the brake pedal.
