Could this be an issue with sticky caliper?
Could the pads not be retracting properly if they don't slide well? I inspected the brakes again and it looked like the guide pins were extremely gunked up. They must not have been replaced when the brakes were done, and maybe the wrong lube was used (think you aren't supposed to even use any?) and attracted a lot of dirt.
I was thinking of trying to clean them in-place. Or is it possible I can remove and clean the guide pins while leaving the caliper and pads in place (assuming I do 1 at a time)?
Thanks
