[QUOTE="Maxmush, post: 366669, member: 17122"] Hi virtualmystic, Sorry I have not log in for quite a while. After changing my brake pads and reading your posting on the brakes I did not want to take chances on the same problem recurring again. I got Optimum Auto to open up my brakes this time, cleaned it and change the rubber kit. The front left caliper bracket was faulty and I changed it. The floating mechanism checked and everything is ok now. However I had to skim the disc slightly and I reckon after this last skim I'll have to get a new disc the next time I have my pads changed. So, glad to inform that my brakes are working fine and what I am going to do in the near future is to change the servo to perhaps a newer model of the E30 maybe a 1991 make. I was informed that this would help. 3er......my brake hoses are all steel braided so there is no problem there. After draining the brake fluid again this time around the brakes feels a lot better. Thanks for you kind advise virtualmystic. Its been a great help. [/QUOTE]
