Default break pedal noise?

Hey guys i searched nothing.
Anyways i notice recently that when im at a light stopped, with light pressure on the break pedal to hold me from rolling back into the other car, my break pedal makes a noise.
Its like a Humming/vibration noise. Well it also sounds like a purring fart. It will do it as long as im holding the break at that spot...Any ideas? Maybe booster going out?
Or master cylinder?

hmmming/ vibration? I think your rotors are warped and need to be resurfaced with the new brake pads.

Im already stopped/ So im not moving at all. Car is at a still. The humming, noise is comming from the pedal itself.

if its a purring noise coming from the pedal... it is most likely your brake booster. This happened to me couple years ago going to school i would brake and hear a hissing as i applied pressure even at a dead stop. It turned out to be a leaky brake booster.

Which part was leaking? The black booster itself? Or the brake fluid master. My master cylinder leaks break fluid, where it joins the booster.... So i need a new booster or master cylinder?

New master cylinder with new seals!!! Most common honda problems is the master cylinder. Not the booster as most would think because they said its spongy and air is in the system. The seals are worn after age. so either rebuilt the master cylinder or get a new one, highly recommended. Good luck
