brake pedal has too much damping
Hello folks,
I haven't seen this problem mentioned elsewhere but... My brake pedal feels like it has too much damping. In other words, if I jab the brakes quickly, I hear the sound of air blowing off (pssssh) but not much happens, but if I apply slow even pressure, they work fine. Thus the problem is that I can't get on the brakes quickly, even though the stopping power is fine. I don't have a spongy pedal, or a pedal that sinks to the floor, or another other problem like that.
I have driven other cars where you can give the brakes a quick stab, and it manages to jolt the car as expected
