Brake help needed!
Hi and thanks!
I have repllaced my front rotors and pads for the first time and have run into an issue being that following the first pedal depression the brakes won't release. When I installed the rotor and new pads everything went on smooth with minimal force. The new pads slipped in very easy. I completed both fronts, hopped into the car and pumped the brake a couple and tried to move the car and in felt like the brakes were 'on'. I took the wheel off to inspect, the rotor was super tight and wasn't spining. I wacked it with a rubber mallet a couple times and the rotor worked itself free again. I checked the fluid, even removed a mall amount. Popped the whell back on and same issue; after the firt pedal depression it seems like the callipers wont let go of the rotor. :confused: Any suggestions or guidance will be most appreciated!! Thanks James jmazillo@magbank.com |
what year? My calipers had rusted from sitting when i bought the car and i needed to give them a good wire brushing and a little grease to get them moving freely

Did you flush the brake fluid with new?
|
Do both front calipers react the same or is this unique to one side?
