Weird problem when braking

Weird problem when braking
Ok so this past weekend i installed daizen bushings on my front end and also put my coilovers back on. Everything went well other than when i put the LF speed sensor back in i didnt clean it and it threw a code. No biggie since i just took it out, cleaned it, cleared the codes and its been fine ever since. Heres my issue...when coming to a stop with my foot on the brake when im almost at a complete stop it feels as if the front left wheel releases the brake and the car kind of jumps forward. Its hard to describe but basicaly its braking braking braking releases and braking again. It slows down just fine and if i slam the brakes it stops no problem, but i know it shouldnt and its never done this before. I checked for leaks and i didnt find any, fluid level is fine also. Anyone know if i could have gotten an air bubble somehow. I had the calipers off, but never disconnected the line. Btw im running ls calipers and stainless braided lines if it makes a difference. Thanks

What you are describing sounds like brake-fade which is typically a rotor/pad issue. .Any chance you got grease on their during installation? And you never experienced this before the recently install of bushings/coilovers?

Seized? Do a quick google on what a seized caliper will do..
Do a search my friend...your BMC is taking a crap..you can either get a new one try to reset all the hidden ABS/VSC codes and see what happens

GS4_CS ..any update/luck with your brake issue. my 99 gs300 has been doing the same thing for about 1yr. I was going to try to clean my wheel sensors.

Im all fixed. I took out both my front sensors to look them over and clean them and made sure to put them in straight so they sit flush and no more problem. I guess they might have been in there crooked causing the sensor to read like the wheel was slipping. You can clear the codes..there is a procedure on how to do it. Just search and youll find it. But basically you jump two terminals tc and e1 and remove the jumper. Then you put ignition on and pump the brakes 8 times within 5 seconds.
