Hi all,



Got a pain in the ass issue.



First, occasionally when I'd pull out of my driveway after the car sitting overnight the first time I pump my brakes I wouldn't get much brake, and the pedal would go down further than it should. Everything was fine after that.



Next start noticing my car pulling to the right a bit, and upon coasting to a stop in neutral the stop would be just a little abrupt, like I was pressing on the brake lightly.



Now it's gotten so when the brakes are warmed up it'll bite pretty hard even when I'm not pressing the pedal all. And when I do press it, I only get maybe 2" if that of pedal travel, and it's hard to press.



I let it sit for 10 minutes or so, and it's lightened up a bit, but still grabbing somewhat.



Last night I changed the pads in both front brakes and bled them. Pistons moved back somewhat easily. Sanded and cleaned the caliper pins to make sure there was some play.



It was easy to spin the front wheels. Started out driving and it was perfect. Did maybe five 35 mph medium stops with no issue. Then after the last one I put the car in neutral and instead of coasting I was slowing down. Got to the point where I'd actually use a little boost to maintain a constant speed. Pulled in a parking lot for 5-10 minutes and it loosened up a bit. Still there, but getting better.



Tonight I'm gonna bleed the rears, then the front again, and my clutch as well. Just to make sure all the air and old fluid is out.



After that I'm not too sure.. Caliper rebuild?



Help would be much appreciated!

did you check your parking brake ??? sounds like its hanging up

Sounds like a caliper s hanging up. Check for pinched lines and that type of stuff. If not then you need to rebuild them
