why does it feel like i have too much air in my brake system?

Question:every time i try to brake it sound and feels like air is releasing from the brakes

Answers:
IT IS NOT AIR 'IN' YOUR BRAKE SYSTEM IT IS VACUUM LEAKING THROUGH YOUR BRAKE BOOSTER DIAPHRAM. REPLACE THE BOOSTER IMMEDIATELY.

Other Answers:
drive in reverse and slam on your brakes, sometimes this releases air in the lines

u may need new brakes/brakepads. try pumping the brake to build up the pressure, if that dosent work them u may need new. Have this checked out my your mechanic. You may need to bleed your brake lines. Sometimes air can get trapped in there. This happened to me once and my brakes failed. This could be dangerous.


If you are hearing a hissing or whooshing noise when braking, the power brake booster may be bad.

 
have someone bleed your brakes. it's not hard all you have to do is loosen a screw while someone pushes on the brake, until all the air comes out then itghten the screw. or like the other person said drive in reverse and slam on them, but i will tell you that i did that once and about 15 min later my brakes went out on me. i don't know if t=one has anything to do with the other but i thought you should know.
