calling all mechanics please, the brakes, especially the fronts are permantly binding on my 2004 vito.
the other night i drove a round trip of 10 miles and could smell a burning like a clutch smell, i went sniffing around the wheels and the bloody brake disc was glowing red!!!
so i stripped the brakes down, the calipers pushed back freely and evenly, i took the sliders out and greased them and then reassembled and regreased the edges of the brake pads but to no avail
so i replaced both disc's and pads and brake hoses plus more grease and checked each caliper was bled and still they're binding!
the only other thing i can think of is the master cylinder but before i fork out more money i thought i'd ask for some suggestions please

get it to merc for a diagnostic check, can't remember what they are called but i'm guessing unplugging the brake pedal switch might cure the problem

although this will also cure the abs and traction control so you may want to test it for only a short while

i might be wrong but a diagnostic won't do anything as it's a mechanical fault not electrical???

you'd be surprised

we had a boost pipe come off

30 seconds to put it back on again, 50 minute to clear the fault codes it threw up

i'd be thinking along the lines of a braking component being faulty in the system somewhere rather than it being mechanically just stuck
