Just recently my brakes are acting up, car is fine for a couple miles then the odor of burning brake pad material starts, then the car wants to brake by itself when coasting. I suspect the brakes somewhere are being slightly applied by something. Here's where I am:
New master cylinder
Rebuilt brake booster
New brake hard lines
New stainless flexible brake lines
Rebuilt front calipers
After I limped home the lugnuts were hot to the touch!
The brake pedal is not applying any pressure on the rod at rest.
I measured the proper length of the booster rod when I installed it.
This problem just started the last couple of drives.
It's happening to all 4 wheels. It does not pull to one side.
Am I removing the master cylinder and booster next? Would bleeding again do anything?
