as the title says, i have been hearing a weird groaning noise coming from the footwell on and off since i took off my dump valve. It has only happened for a second or two until tonight driving home from work where it has done it consistantly. Every time i have applyed the brake it feels very hard, vibrating and very little stopping power. then the ABS and TRACS lights came on and the groaning stopped and the brakes worked.
i switched the car off at my dads, when i came back out and drove off the lights went out and the noise came back for a minute the same again lights came on and the noise stopped.
like i said above the only thing i have changed is i have removed the dump valve and blocked the vac going to the inlet manifold. there is no recirculation system, just the turbo blanking plate. I dont know if this has anything to do with it? maybe a build up of preasure?
oh and ive had a 4 wheel alighment done but that couldn't be it.
please help im at a loss
thank you
