Allenj00 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Hi everyone, I've recently bought a WRX wagon 2005, very tidy has been looked after. I have noticed after driving the car, whether it's for 10 minutes or an hour, without excessive braking, both of the front brake discs are very hot. I don't think the brakes are sticking. Any ideas what this could be? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siluro Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 If not calipers sticking then your disks could be warped. It can only really be sticky calipers or warped disks due to sticky calipers. Someone else may be able to come up with another reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenmamba Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Possibly wheel bearings? Any noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenj00 Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 There's no noticeable noise, just the discs are boiling hot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 The Subaru 4 post are fairly prone to seized or sticky pistons ,especially if the piston dust seals are damaged or the cars been sat a while . Warped discs will normally give pedal judder or you'd feel it at low breaking speeds. You might find a clean ,check all pistons are moving freely, re grease and re assembly might solve your problems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
