be sure that you have vacuum going to the brake booster before replacing it. there may be an outside chance something broke or came off that suppies the vacuum.
It depends on the rpms you are at when this occurs.
If you are lugging the engine you could be experiencing a minor engine mis-fire or an exhaust vibration.
next time this happens see if you are in torque converter lockup, if so then just touch the brake to release it. You will see rpms...

The best deal on wheel bearings for the C4 is from Pep boys. They used to be $99 each with a lifetime warranty. I hear that now they are getting something like $160 for them.

The failure would be due to heat buildup.
Just to add to the suggestion of sticking calipers.
A good way to check is to examine the heat on each wheel after a drive. they should all be about the same unless a caliper is sticking.
Brake hoses, caliper piston seals as mentioned can cause this.
One of the other things to check for caliper...
A flush can stir up little particles that can cause any one of the delicate spool valves to stick. Then a shift problem results.
Many newer vehicle have no change systems because of exactly that reason, things get stirred up and bingo, a problem, and this is under the assumption that filter/ATF...

I would take the radio apart very carefully first to...
