Rear Brakes binding??
Since taking receipt of No.2124, there has always been excessive brake dust on the rear wheels relative to the front. Even the original owner pointed this out to me. I have had a suspicion that the rear brake pads are running a little too tight against the rotors and I believe this to be correct due to the temperature difference I can feel between the front and rear spinners after a drive. The car will coast just fine, and I don't have a problem pushing the car out of my garage (something I do prior to start-up) so they aren't binding "bad", but I suspect there to be contact between the pad and rotors in the "free" state. Both sides exhibit the same amount of brake dust and feel similar in temperature. As far as checks go, I've thought of the following:
- Check Parking brake adjustment when fully disengaged
- Bleed Brakes
- Check Balance Bar adjustment.
Can anyone think of anything else or relate to this situation in general??
Thanks in advance,
- Allen.
