[QUOTE="kk2010jk, post: 440122, member: 20385"] You mentioned you coasted. Do you actually mean the car is able to coast? This would indicate the pads weren't sticking. One thing to look for in sticking brakes is do the offending wheels get really hot. As in the brakes are being applied on those wheels creating excess heat. Also as mentioned, the parking brakes can rust up if you leave them applied, they get wet and stick to the drum surface. I had to deal with an occasional sticking caliper. I would throw snow on the wheel and it would steam off the snow because it got so hot. [/QUOTE]
