Good morning everyone-
I cleaned up the hubs, lubed the pins, and replaced the hardware, rotors and pads on the rear of my 2012 LT last night.
Took the car for a test drive and immediately noticed that the car was dragging and wouldn’t even creep forward with my foot off the brake. There seems to be little to no play between the calipers and rear pads upon inspection. I disassembled everything this morning, screwed the calipers in and pressed on the brakes and the pistons both came out. Screwing them back takes some effort but not terribly so.
Does this sound like a caliper issue? Or is this part of the normal break in for rear brakes? I have done this a half dozen times before with no similar issue in my memory.
Thanks in advance!
