Yeah: tell us, tell us!
Hi everyone, yer the problem with my brakes is that when i drive a couple of miles the brake pedal goes really hard and the brakes bind and i grind to a halt.
The only way i have found to release them is to open up master brake cylinder and undo the nuts on the cylinder shaft and let the brake pedal release. then i go on a couple of more miles and it happens all over again.
i have renewed all of the system and yet it still does this, can you guys and ladys out there give me your thoughts on this, it will be much appreciated.
Thanks will log on tonight to talk................

it sounds like water in the system, turning to steam and pressurising it - but if yu replaced it all then it cant be that .... yu gotta pressure valve in the system sticking on?

How ya doin? i had this on my motorcycle once. damn discs went gold in colour. bit different to a landy i know but it did turn out to be the master cylinder not releasing pressure when i let go of the lever. so each and every time i touched the brakes the pressure went on harder and harder. Got a new one and all was fine and dandy after that.
Hi thanks for your reply ,i did,nt know my landy had one, pressure valve that is.
will look into it thanks.
The brakes are binding the pedal goes really hard after a few miles and on they come.

Like MHM says, perhaps it's a sticky valve. Don't really know what else it could be fella.
