i have a 1989 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas 4 door sedan. 150,000 miles and a V6 engine. a light comes up and tells me "low brake pressure". i added fluid, but it still sayes that and there is no leaks or anything. also, the car starts moving to the side a little when im accelerating like it needs alignment or something and i hear an exhaust sound whenever i let go of the gas. please let me whats up.

"low brake pressure" Could be worn brake pads or air in brake caliper(s).
"pulls to one side on aceleration" rear suspension bushings could be worn out and allowing rear suspension arms to move back and forth. this will through off your rear alignment.
