Has anyone has a similar issue with their 996? The rear brakes started to tighten up after high speed braking, Waited for them to cool down and drove home. Put some new slotted rotors I had on the rear, and bled the rear brakes. No bubbles in the fluid that came out. Went out for another spirited drive, and the fronts started to tighten up. Thanks

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.

I had an issue like this with by 2000 c4, it was related to the booster adjustment
When was the last time you had your 20+ year old calipers rebuilt?
I�ve read on here at least one person with brakes sticking that much are related to the booster. When it�s gone bad like this, engine vacuum is aiding too much assist and engaging the brakes and riding them.
Hopefully it's a cheaper alternative to a caliper rebuild.
