May 9, 20215 yr The rear brake on my 280i is only any good if it is wet.Any ideas why this should be?
May 14, 20215 yr 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
