Cadillac Repair: 92 Fleetwood, diaphrams, hard job


Question
I have an 92 Fleetwood and am having problems with the brake system. When I press the brake pedal I hear alot of air coming from under the dashboard by the steering column. I refilled the resevoir and wanted to see if you had an suggestions.

Answer
What you have is a split in one of the diaphrams within the brake booster which is behind the master cylinder and looks like a big black round half flat basketball which will need to be replaced.

If you are somewhat mechanically inclined this is not a hard job to take on yourself. You can get assistance by e-mailing:
