Ok, I'm worried! Today I noticed while sitting waiting for my Son to get his act together that my passenger side break made a shhhhh sound (like air escaping from something) while I was sitting for a minute or two with my foot on the break. Haven't had a chance to check the break fluid yet, will check it tommorrow. Tried to replicate the shhhh when I got home and couldn't, it didn't happen! What could cause this? Any idea's guys?

could be a million things for example the servo vacuuum pump which is on the passenger side of the engine venting.

Pretty standard sound heared more often mys previous 19 had it and the one i own now has it to. i think its just the pump. a bit the same idea as putting the steering at full lock and hearing the ps pump
