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 |

lol. i wouldnt take my car to a toyota dealer if i was on crack. anyway, yea, that was my original guess. master cylinder. i had to replace mine too. u can get it fron an auto parts store and return your old one and you'll get some money back. came out to like 60 bucks for me. just make sure you specify ABS or NON-ABS. lol. otherwise, it'll take longer. lol.
