Sticking Brakes?

[almack]

Have not driven my Tuscan2 for 3 days, since we had snow in the midlands, so when I go to pull her out of the garage, the brakes are stuck to the disks. After a bit of time they became loose, but not without having to get my hands on the wheels and giving them a bloody 'yank' for around 5 mins. This has happened before, usually when I have cleaned the car and then not taken her for a quick spin to dry the disks. Any ideas on how to stop it happening?

Don't set the handbrake. I just wedge the wheels when parking my car in the garage for any time. I warped the discs on my previous car (Griff) when the brakes seized on.

Just take it around the block after washing it and don't leave it too long after parking it up when driving in the wet. Not much else you can do.

Hiya Alex, you just go from one disaster to another I'e noticed that my brakes stick if left for a while with handbrake on, they usualy release with a clunk as i move forwards but i leave car in gear now and handbrake off.
You off to TMS sat? Maybe see you there, supossed to be a nice day!


ps.. Got my misfire sorted at HHC last week so looking foward to a run out.

Always happens after washing and leaving. Just go forward slightly prior to reversing. No worries. Brakes will bind but no lasting problems.

Thanks guys. Used to get it on the 355, usually when I had washed it. Now park it with the handbrake off and it is fine.

I always take it for a drive around the block when I have washed it to dry the brakes, but with this weather it has been a problem.

R-Toy, may go down on Saturday, (only to look though, the misses gave me enough hassle with coming home with my Tuscan one day, let alone what may be on offer on Saturday!), depends on work, the kids and also a 'flunky' starter button that seams to have a mind of its own at the moment!! All being well though I may go down. Let me know what time you are getting there.
