I am at a complete stop and about 10 seconds after stopping , I feel this very slight "boing" and I can hear it as well. Hapens every time I press the brake pedal! Its driving me crazy. What the hell is that? Post #: 1

But I have never heard of it sounding and feeling like this. It cant actually supposed to make this spring popping sensation in the pedal. No one else knows what I am talking about and they have ABS in their 06 Eclipses. (in reply to NESpeed) Post #: 3

I think they did away with that but check and see maybe they didn't... _____________________________ (in reply to brandoN^gsT) Post #: 6

Almost enough to make you need to clean the spot off your pants... LOL) _____________________________ (in reply to NESpeed) Post #: 8
