i love drifting in canada during the winter only. and only if there is adequate snow/slippery stuff and a safe place to do it but I heard a hissing noise when I hit the brakes I think I need a booster.

Hello, I'm Danny.

Here is the information you requested. Be sure to just move the brake master cylinder slightly out of the wat so that you don't have to open a line and then have to bleed the brake system. I've attached picture steps below on how to change the power brake booster on your car. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Hi Denise,

What kind of issues are you having? Also, is your vehicle the same as the one listed above?

As far as brakes are concerned, we are here to help with directions, pictures, videos, and support, so don't think you can't do it. One of the best mechanics I've met on here is a woman.

Let me know what I can do to help you.

Take care,

Joe
