I have 99 Grand Caravan. I apologize for not searching for an answer, but the search function here seems to be producing odd results.
I have been fighting with a brake problem for a couple of years now; I have posted about this before. Today I took another look at the rear drums. It appears that the one remaining from when the van was new was seized up. I already had planned on replacing it, so that it fixed.
Now, I have been told that the brake booster is bad. The symptoms are primarily grabby brakes on the first push, an sometimes hard brakes (so my wife says). I was talking to a guy at the parts store and he asked me if the brakes make a Woosh sound when the pedal is pushed. I staed that yes, they did, He told me the booster is bad. Is this true? Are there other possible things to check? If it is bad, how the heck do I get it out of the engine bay? Looks as though the intake must come off.....
