New brakes strange sound
Hello! I change the brake booster (from a W210 300 Turbo Diesel) and now when I step on the brake make a puffffffff! And the pedal now goes almost to the "ground". But the car brakes, and it's faster now!!!

Did you blead the brakes?
Hand pumps are available to pull any air pockets from the system. Sounds like air in the lines to me. W

Thak's but after all on my C180 the sound is the same... The problem is the pedal, On my C180 I just have to move it like 1 cm to brake. On the C200 I have to move the pedal like 3 cm! And God the C180 brakes like hell!!!!

I know you posted this a month ago, but can you tell me what you were able to do? My 300E (considerably older than yours) is having the same issue, and I didn't upgrade the brakes.
