I'm having problems getting the brakes working properly on my Alpine S3 GT. Basically, I've gone completely through the brake system and haven't been able to isolate the problem.

Something inside binding and not letting the piston all the way back to release the pressure. Rebuild or replace it. gary; /html/alpines/2001-11/msg00053.html (7,834 bytes)

I have seen the rubber turn to a gooey mush. This can prevent the piston from returning all the way.

This is very hygroscopic and causes rust inside the brakeclaws. I had this problem 2 times already. I just removed the brak; /html/alpines/2001-11/msg00059.html (10,469 bytes)

If the servo valves are faulty, you end up in a situation where the Servo will 'not let go' after braking. T isolate this, disconnec; /html/alpines/2001-11/msg00072.html (8,037 bytes)

However, it would be most unlikely that both would deteriorate at precisely the same time. You should therefor; /html/alpines/2001-11/msg00073.html (8,064 bytes)

The inner rubber tube gets blocked by disintegrating rubber deposits, which can form a 'valve' effect, which prevents the pressur; /html/alpines/2001-11/msg00074.html (7,922 bytes)
