Brakes disappeared, reappeared - Scary! Help... Posted by Camm [Email] (#191) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Camm) on Mon, 24 Oct 2005 14:28:00 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Today after a short stretch of highway driving, I came to a traffic light in town - I applied my brakes and moticed the pedal seemed softer and traveled farther than usual. Next light, waaay softer and deeper, but still stopped fairly normally. As I approach my destination (at this point I'm driving with my hand on the E-brake and looking for a place to to pull over) I pump the brakes and the pedal doesnt go as far, nor is it as soft. I get out and do my business and let the car sit for about 1/2 hour. When I come back to see if I can drive home, the brake fluid is right up where is should be, the pads are all in place (no more than 1/4 worn) and there is no obvious physical problem to the braking system. At this point, when I start the car, the brakes are fine - normal pedal, normal feel etc, and remained so on the drive home (back roads). What's going on here? Only problem with the brakes ever is a persistent (and incredibly annoying) E-brake drag, which doesnt happen if I dont set the E-Brake, which I dont, these days.
