chudder Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 The rear brake on my 280i is only any good if it is wet.Any ideas why this should be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardgg Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 I don't think the rear brake on mine was ever particularly powerful so it may just be expectations? I suggest you try the old standby of getting the brake really hot by riding around on full throttle in 2nd or 3rd controlling your speed with the brake and throwing a bucket of cold water over it, if there isn't a decent cloud of steam it wasn't hot enough. Rinse and repeat 🙂 If that doesn't work back to the usual brake maintenance tricks - check the pads and pucks move freely in the caliper, change the fluid and do a really good of bleeding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
