Ok here's my issue,,, I've been thinking that i was having tranny problems but, tranny shifts good.
This morning coming to work it hit me that it's something goin on with my brakes...
When i start out in the morning my braking is fine no problem, 15 minutes later when everything is all warmed up.. all u have to do is barely touch my pedal and it will stop...
Now here's the problem when i take my foot off the brake the car doesn't move, it's like something has it locked up.. when u hit the gas, it doesn't brake free till it hits about 10-15 mph.
Anybody had this problem before... is it the ABS, calipers or what!!!!
PLEASE HELP

I've heard of brake lines causing this, seems like the inner liner gets a hole in it and brake pedal pressure collapses the liner so pressure can't be relieved from the caliper. You might try bleeding each caliper a tiny bit until you find the "gusher".

Thanks, I'm going to pull all the wheels and take a look, its definitely a brake problem....

Might want to jack up the car and check that the wheels rotate freely. In nuetral and check the frant as well. I have heard of the opposite side caliper not allowing the pressure to release the opposite side caliper.
