Coupe q - Lowering - No Front Brakes - HELP!



Hi all,

I just stopped at the shop, they ran into a problem in finishing up the car...

To bring you up to speed:

New Tires, Boge Turbo Gas shocks and Eibach springs.

After they aligned, they took it for a drive and there were no front brakes. The back brakes worked properly, but you could spin the rotor on both sides of the front with someone fully pushing the brakes.

The pedal was dead soft, with resistance only the last 1/3" of travel.

The "Brake" light would go off as usual when starting the car, but the light would come on again as soon as you pressed the pedal down hard.

No lines are bound, they bled the fronts, finding no air whatsoever, and everything appears in order.


Now, it doesn't seem just replacing those parts could cause this problem, but it is too coincidental to accept, anyone got any ideas?

Any help is appreciated!

BTW: 1" lower makes a coupe look fantastic! the wheelwells look filled, but not stuffed. I can't wait to see how it drives.


TIA,

Todd
