GQ Mav Front brake Issues...
Posted: Sat Dec 24, 2005 10:22 pm
I believe I have posted similer Q but this is different...
Well after fitting my extended Brake lines adter my lift I blead the brakes and all seemed fine But then,
On my way back to work i could smeel brakes and when i pulled over the fronts were smoking they were Nearly on fire..
Now after Calling in a mate to look at it as well we took calipers off and made sure they were ok and checked obvious things but still issues..
When pushing the Piston back into the Caliper it goes in fine Until You push the brakes and bleed it up.. Then the pressure wont release out of the piston, Both sides on front.. Crack the bleed nipple and it compresses fine.
Just seems like the Front brakes are keeping presure and not releasing when you take foot off pedal..
My master cylinder is leaking where it mounts to booster. COULD this be the problem?? Could it not be releasing presure??
Also when bleeding the GQ brakes (all Disc's) is it just like normal? start L/R then R/R, L/F Then R/F? Furthest to closest... Do you touch the Load
sencing thing above diff? there was/is no air in system and we flushed the fluid.
SORRY for such a long post but it was the only way to really say what the problem is..
Cheers

MERRY XMAS TO ALL!!!!
