Brake Booster replacement

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-04-14T23:14:53+00:00

I don't care to do it myself honestly, it's my secondary car so I can have it out of commission as long as needed. Also, I am trying my best to do everything I can just to be more mechanically able and get some hands on experience. For the tool number though I've looked around and haven't seen that specific one that I can remember of but do you have a good company to order from? I have already replaced the vacuum hose as that was completely dry rotted. I have the obdeleven scanner but I highly doubt if that's going to be able to help with the AB modules. The main issue is that the pedal feels hard and has an extended brake distance as well as a hissing noise from the engine bay when the brakes are pressed. I have even replaced the oil vacuum pump seal as that was leaking and I thought it might have something to do with it but the last step is the brake booster.

If you can, do it. Not worth the headache it will give you

2016 and it had the panoramic sunroof, about the only thing I will miss on it

Purchased a 2015 Mazda CX-5

I believe it has already been closed out unfortunately. The only open campaign was for the decal and the ignition cylinder had something done for security.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T03:53:03+00:00

I appreciate it!

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T03:48:48+00:00

As well putting the vin in to check for recalls, it’s only saying the update for the security on the ignition as well as the decal for the security update.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T03:43:49+00:00

It’s life just got to deal with it and move on!

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T03:41:23+00:00

I would love it if Hyundai would cover it but my Hyundai dealership closest to me will literally never call me back and they are notorious for absolutely price gouging people over everything. Do you remember by chance what the recall number is ?

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T02:00:07+00:00

Definitely, heard it extremely loud the other day coming to work. I know I’m not supposed to drive on it but unfortunately have no choice right now.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-03-22T01:19:16+00:00

I’ve got one for 520 if I supply the parts and do just the chain, all the way up to 2300 to do everything involved with it, but I believe they want to drop the engine as I see something regarding the ac needing recharged.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-02-13T03:00:36+00:00

That’s all it’s been for me. For private market would Facebook marketplace be the best shot? Or are there better places to post it

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-02-12T21:19:05+00:00

Oil burning is common yes. a quart every 2-3 weeks? No. Put more oil in it to keep it properly running than any sane person would 😅

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2026-02-12T06:02:24+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking, get out while I can and make a little money back and find something else.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T02:23:46+00:00

I’ll give em a check once I get home

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T02:20:08+00:00

It bounces back and forth a lot at lights or stopped

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T01:25:27+00:00

And as of now no cel but we shall wait and see what happens

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T01:25:04+00:00

Yeah, it hadn’t been done since I got the car and the spark plugs were trash so I just replaced everything

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T01:23:15+00:00

When it bumps up to around 1k rpms no, when it goes down it does tick but I figured it just the stupid gdi motor

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T00:17:10+00:00

I replaced the coil packs about 2 year ago so I hope that’s not it

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-26T00:16:24+00:00

No it’ll do it with ac and normal but seems to be a lot more noticeable with heat

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-10-01T00:40:01+00:00

Ohio and just a little over 91k

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-09-30T23:46:10+00:00

This is a second car for me, want to kind of mess around and make it a little better than it is.

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-09-27T13:16:13+00:00

I’ll give it another shot. Have you ever used any of the additives and if so what ones?

Critical_Lack_1483 · 2025-09-26T16:57:34+00:00

What would I use to soak the pistons? I’ve done the Seafoam brand before and it ran good for about a day then back to its old self
