Just want to remind everyone how dangerous it is shutting your car off going down a hill, you lose your power steering, power brakes, and if i was the property owner at the end of the street I would be pretty ticked when you come thru my front door because the car didn't start. A couple dollars in gas is well worth not wrecking your car for, replacement parts will be far more expensive, or your insurance rates going up, must be a pretty good hill if your doing 80 at the bottom, ever think what would happen if someones kid stepped out in front of you? Could you get it started and stopped in time? Is that worth a couple dollars in gas? Oh yeah, and im sure it takes more gas to start it at the bottom of the hill then you saved by coasting down. If your driving your an adult now, act like one, and if you don't be ready to take responsibility when something happens. How would you start the conversation explaining why you couldn't stop your time when little Suzzie walked out to get her ball out of the street?
As far as the brakes, they are probably ok, the calipers probably just haven't released completely yet.
