    Default Braking problems

    Hey Guys,

    Got a very strange problem with my VR 93 wagon.

    When I take my foot off the accelerator the car automatically brakes.

    Any help appreciated.

    Thanks

    Sounds like your brakes are dragging (stuck caliper slides?) or you have a problem with the brake booster. Has any work been done on the car recently?
