Hello Team,

I have just repaired my front and back break pads and routers. i have also repaired my back calipers thinking that this would solve my problem but it didn't. The problem i have is after driving for anywhere from 15-20 minutes, all of my calipers seize to where it is still drivable but very hard to accelerate.
After about 5 minutes, they release and its fine.
In the last 7 months, i have went throught 3 sets of pads right down to the white meat. I brought it back to my dealer all three times and of course didn't pay anything the second and third but they are having a hard time resolving the issue. They said it can be the booster ____ or the master cylinder. they wont find out until they replace it. does this sound like an issue from the master cylinder failing or faulting? All the feed back is appreciated.
