Euro Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Well can't go to class today because my BRAKE idiot light was on. The fluid was full, so what else could it be? My guess is the calipers went shot? I heard that could do it. I guess its a blessing because i needed front brakes like nobody's business.

Euro Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 no thats the first thing i checked for. I pulled the brake release and the parking brake wasn't on. I looked in my driveway and there was 2 puddles of brake fluid where my front wheels sat in the driveway. calipers went to hell. oh well ill be glad when new brakes are on!!

Grand Moff Joseph Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Sorry to hear about the brakes...but in the end, getting better brakes for the lumina is worth every red cent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EurosportZ34 Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 when's the last time they have been changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted April 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 well the fronts (meaning pads and rotors) were changed just before your first ever meet Brad. The front calipers?? All of the rears(whole shebang pads/rotors/calipers) were late last summer. Turns out it was a leaky Right rear caliper. So they replaced it for free, and rotated my tires for free too. We're doing the fronts ourselves within the next couple weeks(This should be fun) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
