brake question
Would brakes "grabbing" be a symptom of a master cylinder or power brake booster going out?
TIA  |

Have the brakes ever been over heated? It may be warped rotors |

^ I agree, I have that problem, feels as though the car pulls to one side, right? Caliper is going. And like TJsBimm said, if you change one, you gotta change the other side as well, done in pairs, like pads.

Thanks guys for your responses. The car does not pull to one side or the other. I'm still under warranty so I'll take it in this next week. The more I drive this car the more I believe it is one of the nicest cars I have ever had. I enjoy driving it as much as my Porsche, maybe more. |
