I have an 89 toyota corolla with a brake problem:
Pressing down the brake pedal, with a relatively low amount of pressure, the pedal seems to have gone all the way down, as i can feel the pedal hitting a bottom and hear the knocking sound. However, at this point, even at around 10 - 20 mph speeds car continues to move forward and can't get the tires to skid.
When I press down a lot harder beyond that point, even though the pedal doesn't seem to go any further, I can get tires to skid. But I mean.. really a lot of pressure compared to what I know how brakes should be.
I don't really feel the problem when driving normally, but a hard brake reveals that I need to do some extra thinking other than reflexes in case of emergencies.
Any one had the same problem or have any ideas?
Thanks.
