when i brake while reversing and turning at the same time, my brakes jam and start grinding until i turn the steering wheel straight then i can brake again. also, today i was going at about 50mph and wanted to turn right (going straight) and i braked while turning (not a sharp turn, it was a slight turn) and the brakes also jammed and grinded until i straightened the steering wheel. i doubt this is normal. anyone else experience this?

 

To the dealer on Monday your new baby goes.
There is no reason for what you describe, a car has to be able to brake and turn at the same time!!
Go drive another 08 on the lot and see for yourself

 

anyone else ever experience this?

 

there are other ziners with yaw sensor issues, wheel speed sensor and other parts of the new fangled traction control sysytem going bad
Thats why I said back to the dealer you go!!

 

lol thanks. im going to the dealer anyway about this. i was curious, do the dealers install CAI's and pulleys and etc? that way ill just get them done there and get the car fixed at the same time.

 

Some will aftermarket parts if the shop is slow- BUT they charge a higher labor rate
Also some will not install ANY mods to the car-
others will install any they sell there!
You only need the 1 crank pulley not the others
CAI- have a private shop do
AND get the current issue resolved before adding more power to the situation

 

If you didn't change your rear pads because it looked new, it maybe because the rear calipers are stuck. this is a common issue for hondas. I changed my brakes with about 60,000 miles, and the back still looked brand new. I still replaced them and squeezed and pulled the calipers so they were not stuck, but I think its best to check them maybe every other oil change or so.

 

no but i only have around 4,000 miles on it. i dont think its the calibers. and i have an AEM CAI, TB spacer+gasket, UR Pulley, and im about to get a J-pipe.

 

I am sorry, somehow I replied to the wrong post? another brake issue

 

No way that's normal, imho.

Mine doesn't do it - I KNOW I can brake hard and turn at the same time, with no unusual noise, grinding, etc.

 

thanks BC. im calling the dealer today to solve this problem.

 

call SERVICE MANAGER - then drive to the dealer and take the Head TECH for a thrill ride,
have him/her drive it too
NOT the service writer- unless they are a retired acura tech-
