My Ford Explorer makes a whining noise when I step on the brake..?
may have a vacuum hose leak.could be that you have a blown headgasket, or other serious problem.
Think You Can Figure This Out?? Please Help?
the hissing sound is pretty common for the steering thing. i think thats normal.
how much does a head gasket set for a rover 75 cost?
The hissing sound could be something rubbing when you are turning in that particular direction. I would have the brakes and front end inspected. For the dieing problem, it almost sounds like either the fuel pump is temporarily sutting off or a restricted fuel filter. I would try replacing that first since it is the least expensive. It may also be the ignition loosing it's signal but when that happens it usually backfires. Soes your check engine light ever come on? If so I would get a code scan done to give you some direction on what and where to go. Good luck,TonyHow do i add Dex Coolant ? If added incorrectly may cause engine damage.?
The steering is normal to make noise when you turn it all the way to either side. As for the power that could be anything, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, clogged catalytic convertor, clogged air filter.... but it sounds like fuel problem to me.sell it and get a honda. they do NOT brake.
