if its the back then theres 2 turn noobs at the end of the brake lines, if u have titen them they might be too tight and might be causeing the brakes to be rubbing constantly, make sure that is not the problem, and if u ajust it thres 2. Ones for the hand brake and the others for the foot. If its not the problem put it back to the original positionn.(count how many turns you do on each)!

DUDE!!!! No wd-40 on the pads. If u put wd-40 on the brake pads or sprayed the caliper then ur pads are shot. wd eats the brake pad material. Please tell me that I missunderstood....
