Right here it goes, ive recently been having some issues with the nova. Everything was fine untill it failed its mot on a rear wheels bearing.
I replaced both rear wheel bearings, then took it out for a drive. Apon arriving home i realised id left the handbreak on :roll:. The rear wheels where very hot to say the least and the rear breaks cooking.
Since then i starting getting massive break vibrations, so i had the front discs checked, all ok. Then i replaced the rear shoes, Drums and passenger side brake cylinder.
This didnt cure the vibrations unfortunatly and to make matters worse the drivers side rear brake is locking up on heavy braking and sending me sideways:mad:.
Today after rebleeding all the brakes i noticed that the rear wheel has a rather large buckle in it, so replaced it for the spare and this has cured the vibrations but not the locking up obviously.
Has any one got any ideas was is causing just one rear brake lock up?
I am running a corsa gsi servo, so both rear brakes come off of the same outlet on the master cyclinder. Fronts are 280mm wilwood 4 pots.
