hey guys,

the brakes (front) on my 1600 have recently started squealing an smelling like they are gettin hot on my 20min drive to work.... the wheels are hard to turn when up on a jack.... they make a noise while driving normally & not when I am braking... kinda like they are stuck half on... I have tried bleedin brakes but made no difference

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Cheers
Bayden

If theyre sticking,its either the piston in the callipers sticking or the slides sticking. If its the slides they will need to be pulled apart/cleaned and regreased.
If its the pistons that are seizing theyre probably due for a full rebuild at the brake shop

Other possibilities are your wheel bearings are worn/loose or you got problems with the brake master

Is it coming from the front or rear?
