E30 sticky brakes

[jumpman]

Dear all...would like some clarification regarding my brakes. it tends to be sticky once the car is running hot. it's like when you slow down you can feel the brakes stopping the car instead of it stopping on its own. This inevitably causes the brakes to squeal when moving slowly. I don't tink that its the servo problem as I have recently changed my servo and master pump plus it only happens after the car is hot, though could it still be a factor in causing it ?Please help!

I've serviced mine before, the braking is more balanced on both front wheels and lesser brake dust compared to pre-serviced brake calipers. Based on my experiences, I would say a brake caliper service should solve your problems.

bro jump man... i think the problem is your brake caliper, old car brake caliper always stuck especially most of them without the dust cover for the two sliding screw which provide free movement for the caliper so that it can press the brake pad to the brake disk with balanced force for both side of the brake disk.
