Poll

Driver complains that the pedal pushes too hard against their foot, and vibrates in a manner that makes them doubt the brakes work.  Yet they never actually try them to verify.

Driver is correct
Driver is a woman
Driver is a huge giant faggot
Piss wiffle
Russ is also correct, a woman, a huge giant faggot, or some combination thereof.
Russ isn't French

Btw, this is the driveway I had to drive into last week on ice and 4" of snow at -15C.

Unless your talking about 4x4 summer tires (even then) your not able to climb this with summer tires. Maybe doing backward...

I drive on shit like that all the time.

My civic just has all-season tires with good tread and LSD trans.

I find the colder it is the better the tires stick, probably b/c the ice/snow doesn't become a lubricant when melting under your tires as much.

Or it could be I'm not French and can drive a car.  :noel:


Again, you have a LSD... It make a big fucking difference in the snow. Nobody has LSD transmission. You failed :)

In my spare '94 DX w/o LSD I could go up that drive way. And your French Canadian, you failed.  ::)  8) O0

I would venture to say that the LSD isn't making much of a difference going up a snowy hill, equal traction loss on both tires means both are spinning, unless your girlfriend is a fatty.

My girlfriend no, my wife..........  :noel:

As for the LSD it does make a bit a difference, b/c I rarely experience issues of both tires breaking traction at the same time going up hills.

Driving done hills can be another issue.  :noel:

This is where the Whoretex comes in handy.  While some VW owners can be trendy douchenozzles, most of the time they are more than willing to help someone out.

http://forums.vwvortex.com/forumdisplay.php?5113-United-States

check our the regional forums and find your area.  see if someone is willing to run some codes for you so you know what to fix.

If it were me, id check the Vacuum booster deal and all hoses leading to and from the brake booster itself.  If you have good vacuum up to the booster then it might be a bad booster.  Again i don't know too terribly much about the mk4 but brakes are brakes most of the time.

TL;DR  Check codes.  Check lines for leaks.  Check for good vacuum.  Check vacuum booster deal.  Check brake booster.  Set car on fire.  roast marshmallows.  Profit.
