Lately (past week), i have noticed that when i turn sometimes, the brake light comes on and then turns off after the turn. Sometimes driving strait it may come on and then go off or just stay on. Well today, when i started my car, if was on the 5 files i hat to drive to UCF. What's up with this, because it isn't throwing any code except for EGR (i bloked that off 2 years ago)?

are you low on fluid

it's at the max fill line, but my brake pressure is kinda low (been like that for the past year). occassionally, when i am at a light with my foot on the brake, betsie seems like she wants to stall out and idle drops low to just above zero.

Lately she has been idling at just above zero when just parked.

last week i was exactly in the middle of the min and max line. I checked yesterday and i am right on the min line. WTF mate!? What would cause this?

Look at where the master cylinder attaches to the vacuum assist.
If the paint on the vacuum assist below the master cylinder is bubbled up (from exposure to brake fluid), your master cylinder is leaking.

Otherwise, check the brakes at each wheel and trace the brake lines. Looking for leaks.

if you have rear drums pop em off and check your wheel cylinders. Just pull back the rubber boot on them, and if they are leaking replace em.
