      04 with sticky brake calipers

      Hello forum. So the short and sweet is that i have no idea what else to do. I bought the car about 2 years ago. when i drove it off the lot the front passenger caliper locked up. had a warranty so they replaced. about 3 months ago i started having problems again but this time it was the driver side caliper that was stuck. i did that one myself. now three weeks later turns out i have another lock up... anyone have any idea what else i can try. I have not done a complete flush of the brake fluid but i will when i return from my trip in a few weeks. anyone know what else could be causing this frustrating issue? any help will be appreciated.

      a different caliper locked up you mean? have you tested the pressure at the bleeders?

      if you have compressed air, I would get the brake and bleed set from Harbor Freight. You might have trash in your system OR you have a bad cylinder in the system.
