the breaks on my car are, well fading is a good word to describe it

coming to a stop ill break normally to a stop and all of a sudden the car is inching forewards (auto) so i have to press harder and harder
by the time the light turns green the damn break pedal is far back
farther than i ever remembering it

just wanted to confirm if this is a master cylinder problem or break booster problem

also, i dont know if its affecting anything but i do hear a vac leak kind of sound by the master cylinder area and my idle is pretty rough

 

When's the last time you changed your brake pads? Could be those too.

 

theyre pretty new
and im not a driver that speeds to the light then mashes on the breaks haha
probably replaced 6 months to a year ago

it's your booster? or booster shaft seal between master cylinder and booster. good luck, let me know if that work.

 

maybe its your "break" fluid.
