need help with my EG sedan
Iam having problem with my EG sedan, My brake feels weak when I am driving, I tried to check my brake pads and i seems its at 90% of its life, I tried bleeding with brake fluid and the brake still seems weak, also with my transmission, at 3K RPM i hear a buzzing sound, is it because of my tranny or theres a problem with the transmission itself. sorry for my english. im not that good in english.
thanks for the reply.

Re: need help with my EG sedan
it could be your tranny making noise
check your brake booster vacuum hose for rips or leaks
check the brake lines for leaks
all esle fails get a brake booster and master cylinder from a non abs DA(if you dont have abs) and put that in and get a 40/40 proportioning valve. i did this on my 4dr eg and now the brakes are A+

when engine is turned off, press in your brake pedal. If it doesn't build pressure and hold, then chances are you have a leak in your booster. If it doesn't build pressure, chances are your master cylinder is leaking.

Re: need help with my EG sedan
I think the buzzing sound is ok, i wouldn't worry about it. my eg buzzes a bit too. i'm a mechanic (new to this site), and i know many different cars that buzz at different rpm's.
Its just due to a minor engineering fault along the way. and all trannies do it to some extent. don't worry about that, unless it starts getting louder or something.
About your brakes though, the other guys pretty much said it all.
other than what they mentioned, the only other possibility is that you smoked em bad enough to give you brake fade, maybe goin down a big hill or something, but thats not likely. even the eg's don't weigh enough to do much damage to the brakes...
