04 RX8...perhaps locking brakes?!?!

Hi,

Maybe you guys can help me with my little issue that I'm having.
It feels like my brakes are locking up whenever I do a reverse that's after long period of parking. I can't say whether its my brakes but I know that something is locking up and this happens for very short period of time.

Any thoughts on this?!?!

Thanks...=)

You're probably talking about the ABS self-test that it performs when you first start-up your car and move.
It makes a single "clunk" sound.
Nothing to worry about!
