Seized brake piston?

peppersam740 · 08-20-2018, 12:38 PM

No seized pistons. All my symptoms are indicative of a caliper not floating. Both sides are the same. Car is two years old with 9,000 miles.

Sounds like you might have some rust and corrosion built up on the slides. Is it just one caliper doing it, or both?

Yes both sides are the same wear. Is it normal for the inner pad to wear out ten times fast than the outer pads on this car.

2016, with 9,000 miles. Is it a stick or auto? If it's an auto. Do you ride with your foot on the brake, or use a 2 feet driving style?
