Brake pedal is squealing when released?! Posted by turrbo [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() |
I was driving my dad's '04 9-5 Arc tonight and noticed a weird noise coming from the brake pedal. When I release the brake, it makes a loud squeal noise, almost a beep-like sound.
If I pull up on the pedal from behind, the noise stops. If I stop very slowly and lightly, the noise lasts longer than if it were a hard panic stop.
There is no hissing so I don't suspect the booster, but could it be an issue with the master cylinder or something else mechanical? There are no idiot lights on.
The car is under warranty, so it will be taken care of, but I wondered if I shouldn't be driving it. I've never heard my 9000 or 900 do this.
Thanks!
