Damn rear brakes again - what's left to replace? I can't take it anymore!!!!
If you're sure its not the Ebrake and the calipers (did you check the slider pins?), and the brake hoses (collapse on the inside), then it is the porportioning valve. Brakes are slow frustrating process of parts replacemnt elimination. headbang I just did the same thing.- Don89SHO

Rear Brake caliper failure
It could be: 1.) Slider pins (they seize up) 2.) Caliper piston (Can seize up too) 3.) Brake Hose (Internally collasped) 4.) Proportional valve (Can seize up too) My drivers rear was locking up too. I check #1 (OK), Replace the caliper and rotor (pads ground down) and just last week replaced #3...- Don89SHO

Noticed the proportioning valve was sticking and attempts to correct (wacking valve pistons? w/hammer) failed. Will be replacing that and the brake hose now. Those are...- Don89SHO

wet floors
Could be a leaky windshield. The water runs down behind the dash and soaks into the padding, which just sucks it up like a sponge. It'll go all the way to back. Pull the carpet up to let it dry (this works better in the summer) and good luck finding the leak :mad: I'm still looking for mine.- Don89SHO

SFC - Any Interference?
This goes out to those who have SFCs. After the SFC (especially the long ones) are installed, do they interfere with servicing other items, like replacing the clutch, etc?- Don89SHO
