Well - I noticed last night after coming home that *all four* of my brakes were quite hot. Not hot enough to sizzle spit, but hotter than they probably should be. (I don't live at the bottom of a big long hill, so it wasn't due to use). last weekend I rebuilt the calipers, replaced the pads, adjusted the rears up (probably a bit too tight) and flushed and bled the fluid. What on earth could be causing *all four* of the brakes to drag?? (in addition to pulling to port on flat level ground) Could it be something with the proportioning valve? (I may have damaged it months ago when I inadvertently overfilled the master cylinder ) This really has me puzzled. I've done a bazillion brake jobs (Ok - maybe only 1/2 a bazillion) and never have I had this over-pressurization problem... Any ideas?
