P38 Brake Wierdness

Morning all.

Brakes most of the time are excellent, and seem to function as they
should, eg ABS pump runs first at start up for 30 - 40 seconds then
shuts off. Subsequently runs after every two or three pedal presses.

However, if I've been driving for 10 - 20 minutes without using the
brakes. First time I press the pedal, I get a much longer travel, and
an odd click through the pedal just before the brakes com on. Next
time I press the pedal everything is back to normal.

Not done any diagnosis yet, but thoughts where I should be looking
would be gratefully received.

Hi,

I would check for play in the wheels....sounds like you might be kicking the
pads out which is something a bad wheel bearing will do - I know the P38a
hubs are different, but the theory is the same....
