Default Hissing Brake Noise!
Hi, when i drive my s80 2001 model (non - turbo) there is a loud hissing noise coming from the bottom where the brake pedal is after it has been depressed. And also, rarely the pedal also sometimes tends to stay depressed 2/3 of the way. What can this be?

Thanks.

That is usually a bad brake booster.
