[s-cars] Pump, Bomb, or servo, oh my!

[Mike Platt]

It seems the wife's S6 avant is possessed and
continues to plague me whenever I drive her. I just
finished doing a major timing belt service, fixed oil
leak, and rebuilt front end. A nice gesture for the
old girl which comes back to bite me now.

Thursday the brake light comes on and the power brakes
pulsate. If I press the pedal lightly I have plenty of
braking power, with pulsation. If I need to quickly
hit brakes, like for a panic stop, the pedal is firm
and brakes seem to be in delayed reaction and in
manual mode(quite scary). The power steering seems
unaffected and works fine.

Where to go look I must ask? Bomb is less than a year
old, hydraulic pump is about 2.5 years old. Fluid was
flushed and updated to 11s when pump replaced. There
are no leaks anywhere.

Thanks anyone.

I have been considering car needs a real bomb put in
it now but the car may "Christine" me.
