Is there any 'oiling' you can do as regards to the running gear on a WRX?
i.e. after a long drive the car feels like its got the brakes on a touch, doesnt seem to 'freewheel' very well. Feels like i can stop without using the brakes!

Am i going mad? is is this normal? this is my first 4WD. I dont want to F**k the running gear if there is something that needs doing. HELP!

Ive recently replace the rear calipers. The brakes seem fine. If anything the front pads are a touch low.

Oh and the brake light is staying on, is that pads or brake fluid?

any advice would be greatly received.

cheers

sounds like you have possibly answered your own question, first thoughts would be to check/overhaul the brake calipers and make sure they are not 'binding' when hot......................after that a quick check around of diff/gearbox fluids, etc. will certainly help............

The light on means low brake fluid.
