A few months ago i replaced my front rotors and pads. A few weeks later my brakes were staying on whether i had the pedal pushed or not, this would last about 5 minutes then be fine. So I replaced the front calipers and they startes doing it again, I know when they are going to stick cause the pedal gets harder and harder to push until its solid as a rock, itll last a few minutes then go back to normal, any ideas? Is it a line problem.
thanks Chris This post has been edited by celica101: Dec 21, 2005 - 2:25 PM |

try this:
with the car off pump up the brake pedal till it gets as hard as it can with your foot pressing the pedal still start the car and then the pedal should be able to go down |
