Weird brake thing 200 Turbo 1989

[Suffolk GameServer LAN]

Tell the $1400 shop to fix their mistake.
Although there is no guarantee they can handle the job as history has shown
you.

Is there a brake line or component near some high heat source?
Heat will boil or (in early stages) expand the fluid to cause the brakes to
drag or increase their braking bite regardless of brake pedal use.
Think I heard something like this before........

Hello guys
Got a '89 200 Turbo and when I'm driving about 30 to 50 miles I got this
problem: My steering wheel begins shaking badly, at the same time brake
pedal gets stiff, later pedal begins to go to floor and at the end you have
no brakes, the car starts braking itself. You let it getI took it to a shop
(an expensive import service) and got out with a $1400 bill, a new brake
accumulator,hoses and pentosin (according to them it was a leaking problem),
but I never saw any loss of fluid not even when the car had no brakes. I
pay, take the car out of the shop and I got exactly the same problem 30
miles after. The guy in the shop says that the solution now must be that the
front calipers are sticking ,the brake fluid boils and that the car needs
both front calipers (girling, double piston). I check other shop and the guy
says there may be the calipers but that he's never heard of the two calipers
going wrong at the same time, and that the stiff pedal story does not match
with a caliper failure. He suspects a brake master cylinder instead.
Sorry for writing such long mail but I'd appreciate if anyone has ever heard
of something like this before.
