Had the same symptom om my 02 Linear- hissing would go away with pedal depressed. Highly recommned replacing the booster. I had an intermittent CEL as well for a lean mixture (only on cold days). I think one of the posters here suggested that leaking brake booster could be causing it.
In any case- problem went away with the new booster. While I have not noticed any brake performance increase- I'm happy CEl is not reappearing.
PS: I bought a car with noisy engine. While pick up screen was almost completely clogged, engine still had a good oil pressure. It turned out to be a burnt piston #4. I wonder if lean mixture killed it, not the oil starvation?
