Mine always stick on. Every single time I leave it parked overnight or at work. I've never bothered to do anything about it as I don't think that it is too important. Is it?

Mine stick after I've washed it because it goes straight into the garage until the following morning. It's nothing to worry about and has happened on all my cars.

Mine is the same, come off with a loud clang, I'm not concerned though.

All quite normal, after washing or putting the car in the garage in rain, the brakes will stick, nothing to worry about!

I feel a lot happier after reading this topic :thumbup:

Mines being doing this on & off for a while now, I feel better knowing it's quite common.

Thanks for sharing

All due to the wet weather so it'll ease up when the weather sorts itself out.....................hang on that could be a while in the UK :lol:

I always park in gear, but after washing or very wet weather the brakes stick too.
The previous 307 was exactly the same. Nothing to worry about.
Will try reversing when it happens next to see if it comes loose more gently.

Have the same and its no problem, they all do that sir :lol:
I have to say the knock knock knock kick back from the front wheels whilst reversing on full lock is a bit disconcerting, must be down to the tyre width I suppose.

Yeah...mine does it too. Nothing to worry about. It's also usually good for a chuckle when my wife gasps and clutches for the interior armrest/handle. I like to keep her on her toes...evidently so does my RCZ!! :lol: Always knew we were kindred spirits!

I've experienced the same with mine and was starting to get a bit concerned. Thanks for all your posts!
