Not sure if this is the correct part of the forum but....
After I have washed and dried the car and let it "air dry" for a couple of hours, I then put it in the garage under its cover. It may be a week or more till the car is used and I am finding the brakes are locked on solid. Put the car in drive or reverse, release the handbrake if light is on and the car just will not move. I have to use frighteningly high revs, then a bang and the brakes release, slamming them back on before the car rockets through the back wall of the garage!!!
If car goes out and it is a dry day the brakes are still ok after a couple of weeks in the garage. I believe it is "only" surface rust on the disc but it very worrying that the car may end up under a brick wall, through the garage door or hurtling down the drive.
The wife suggested spraying oil on the discs which i chose to ignore, in the same sentence she asked where the Life insurance policy was??????
Joking aside any suggestions?
