Glad you got it sorted out. I popped into this thread to ask you if you fixed it because mine was behaving oddly yesterday ('84 P30, rear discs). I replaced the rotors, calipers, pads and MC last year. It's been working fine. I took it out to get it inspected yesterday and about half way to the inspection station (about 5 miles in) the pedal got really stiff. The brakes still worked well - too well actually. The pedal was very "touchy". When I stopped at a red light I smelled that hot brakes smell. I pulled off into a parking lot and it was both front brakes that were hot and smelling. They were definitely dragging - I could feel it when I accelerated. I let it cool for about 15 minutes and it was fine again for the rest of the journey. But now I'm afraid it will do it again unless I can figure out why it did it in the first place.
