I have noticed that if I clean the C4s and immediately put it back in the garage for the night, the brakes stick when I try to back out the next day.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have noticed that if I clean the C4s and immediately put it back in the garage for the night, the brakes stick when I try to back out the next day. They only stick for a second, but the noise is pretty nasty. Anybody know why this happens, and if it is potentially damaging, how can it be avoided? Thanks

POST 2Original post

whenever i wash my car and i get the rotors wet, they seem to oxidize leaving a thin layer or rust or rust looking substance. It is probably just that stuff getting rubbed off.

POST 3Original post

Make it a point to run the brake rotors and pads dry after each wash. It's always fun to find more reasons to drive the car, and it avoids that sticky snap and sandpaper/grinder sound.

POST 5Original post

Also, dont set ebrake when the brakes are wet. Might help..
