Front brakes binding

blackmini · Apr 6, 2012

Thanks everyone, think centurion has the same idea as me.

It was the pushrod on the brake pedal that needed adjusting, think someone must have adjusted it previously due to very worn pads, they were very worn down.

Annoyingly had adjusted them once, just not enough. You learn something every day.

Was it you or the dealer that found the problem?

It was the garage that fixed it in the end

I had had enough by then of trying everything, plus was twodays late travelling to Cornwall, I had already adjusted the pedal once but not enough so it made no difference to the problem.

I think will adjust it again soon, as the pedal travel seems a bit far at the mo. Nowt like messing about..

Welcome to the forum.

Give the calipers an overhaul, cleaning them and replacing the pistons and rubber seals. Not expensive.
