Brake binding, brake sticking, or brake locking on
One common issue faced by BMW 3 Series (F30, F31, F34) owners is brake binding, brake sticking, or brake locking. This problem often arises due to a faulty ATE MK100 ABS Pump. When the ATE MK100 ABS Pump malfunctions, it can prevent the brake caliper pistons or brake pads from retracting properly, leading to brake binding or sticking. This excessive friction increases wear and tear on the brake components.
The malfunction causes the brake calipers to maintain pressure even when the pedal is released, potentially resulting in brake locking. This can be particularly dangerous as it may cause the wheels to remain locked unexpectedly, reducing control and safety. Ensuring your BMW 3 Series (F30, F31, F34) is free from brake binding, brake sticking, or brake locking issues related to the ATE MK100 ABS Pump is crucial for safe driving.
When driving a BMW 3 Series, you might notice that the brakes are automatically applied when the windshield wipers are active. This can cause the vehicle to slow down significantly without the driver pressing the brake pedal. This situation, often referred to as brake sticking, brake locking on, or brake binding, can be quite alarming. The root cause is usually related to the ABS pump, which may malfunction and cause the brakes to engage unexpectedly.
