i say brake booster= broken, did that brake booster come out of a turbo, or na, S4 or S5, go get the right brake booster im almost 100% sure thats the problem. and when you replaced the mc did you put the pin back in the brake pedal?

its the stock brake booster all i did was replace the mc. its a s4 gxl. and when i replaced the mc i didnt take no pin out from the pedal . so if its a bad brake booster can i swap the one from my 4 lug parts car to my gxl and every thing will be fine . or do i need to get another one ? thanks
