Hopefully the embedded video comes through. Weird screeching sound coming from the braking system. Sounds like its inside the cab but the booster and everything is right on the other side of the firewall so could be in the engine bay. From the little I have found people are suggesting replacing the entire assembly for like $900 just for the part. Only had the car a week so quite annoying.

 
I'm afraid to click on the link but my money is a leaking diaphragm in your brake booster. Disconnect the vacuum hose and see if the sound goes away assuming it makes the noise while parked. If so, there is your answer.

Lol, not sure why you would be afraid.

So if the sound goes away with a disconnect vacuum line then I need to replace this highlighted assembly?
