Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has experienced the same issue.

Basically, I thought I had a sticking calliper. I've replaced the calliper, pads, pins and the brake hose.

When I was replacing the above I think the fluid reservoir went below the min line - my mistake.

Now when I move the car its okay for a couple of brake pumps - then the calliper resumes seizing.

Does this sound like the brake master cylinder needs replacement or could there be air in the system that I missed with a flush (I only flushed the front left, not the entire system)?

Normally id say I'm out of my depth and bring it to the garage, but thought I you guys might save me getting it towed!

Thanks,
Paul.
 
If you have replaced the caliper and hose then you will certainly have got some air in with the fluid.

Bleeding really needs two people if you are a novice.
