Nothing to worry about, that noise you're hearing is most likely your brake booster. They all make an audible "buzzing" noise after ~3 pushes of the brake pedal.


Now, about those models...

Lmao... it sounds like it is coming from the front left side... doesn't necessarily sound like a "bad" noise. Just wondering if i needed service. As the Transporter said "if you take care of your car, it will take care of you"

Is the brake booster noise that 3-4 second buzzing noise I hear when braking every now and then? Normally only hear it when manoeuvring at slow speeds and on and off the brakes...
