ok the last two times i drove my car the front passengerside brakes have locked up. after it sits for about 30min-1hr they unlock. yesterday going down I40 they slowly locked up so i took the 430 exit and got out to see small flames comming off my pads. i had it towed to a local shop i trust and they gave me a brake inspection that showed everything was opperating perfectely fine...... when i got my new ecu the first time i plugged it in the abs light came on but evolution motorsports claims there is no connection with the ecu and the abs. i guess i'll need to get ahold of a VAG COM so i can get the code and hopefully get this thing figured out. anyone have any idea as to whats going on? i dont want to have to replace a bunch of crap and that not even be the problem.

mine do that too (track pads). sounds like an abs problem. can someone link to the vag registry?

Sounds like a locked / binding caliper or piston

i have a friend with VAG COM but i dont know how to get a hold of him. his phone is turned off and he is never at home. in the meanwhile my car just sits here in little rock outside the shop. no i dont live in the seattle area though. i live in Little Rock AR

otherwise it's unrelated.

Weird that your calipers stick. Not good. :/

my stoptechs started to drag recently and I rebuilt them. one piston was pretty hard to get out, 2 were fine and the fourth was in between. My car will be running again on tuesday or wednesday so ill let you know what the problem is then.
