Mazda 6 problem

Roversfc · 2017-10-29 23:29:57

I have a 2007 Mazda 6 1.8 petrol and recently when driving it feels like the car is wobbling a bit like as if I had a flat tyre but when I pulled over to check all my tyres were fine. I drove home and didn’t think anything of it until the next day after driving for about 10 mins the car felt like it had a flat tyre again…

I have a 2007 Mazda 6 1.8 petrol and recently when driving it feels like the car is wobbling a bit like as if I had a flat tyre but when I pulled over to check all my tyres were fine. I drove home and didn’t think anything of it until the next day after driving for about 10 mins the car felt like it had a flat tyre again even though it didn’t. It also feels like the handbrake or brake is on when driving even though it’s obviously not like it feels like something is holding the car back if I lift my foot off the accelerator the car will slow down very fast. There is no warning lights on the dash. Any ideas what’s going on?

A sticking brake caliper can give a vibration when it gets hot.

Id put money on a sticky rear calliper. Those cars are well known for that
