I bought the car in May 07 plate. Had new brakes fitted at the time of purchase. Done around 7K on them.

Since i bought the car there had been another problem of the car veering to the left. I sorted that out by replacing the front tyres. Tyres were ok tread wise but one of the walls must have been shot.

But since the tyres a new problem has developed.

There is a lot of travel on the brakes. You have to push down over halfway to get any purchase on the brakes. I took it back to the dealer I bought it from and they checked the brakes over. They flushed the system and replaced the brake fluid. No fault was found. I have also had the tyres checked. Nothing wrong with them either.

But im still having the same problem. My dad said it could be the calipers seizing up. Should I take it in and get the wheels stripped and the calipers checked?

Thanks in advance.
