Rear Brake

Featured Replies

I had a problem with my offside rear brake caliper sticking on and the the brake disc turning blue.

New caliper fitted with discs and pads and its still doing it, any ideas.

 

Sticking handbrake cable.

Yes handbrake return springs fitted

was it a brand new calliper fitted?

  • Author

yes brand new

hmmm, im not sure then its very strange unless the wheel bearing may have some play?? although not sure if that would cause the caliper to drag

just been looking again, wheel is spinning fairly freely when cold, brakes applied and release ok but seems to bind when vehicle has been run for a few miles

In that case change the brake fluid.
