Sticking Rear Brakes In Freezing Weather

[adam03031980]

Ok now I know I have asked about this before but I couldn’t find the old post and combined with trying to hide me surfing the net at work I had to be quick, anyway to cut a long story short my rear brakes seemed to stick and judder in freezing weather now it has warmed up it has stopped and only comes back when the brakes get hot after say 20 miles "driving on the A1" could this be moisture freezing making them seize and the when getting how making moisture expand making it stick again.

Bleed the clutch hydraulics at the same time... Just make sure the reservoir is full to the brim with the air tapped out. Having the front of the car jacked up helps too.

Are the clutches difficult to bleed the brakes wont be a problem but never done the clutch before

Had this problem as well and it was moisture in the handbrake cables sticking in there sleeve overnight and it was freezing on the move due to the wind chill factor,sprayed the cables with wd40 and cured the problem.
