I'm recycling this thread because I'm having the same problem with the brakes on my B. I went away to Florida for two weeks on vacation and when I returned, I noticed that there was a vibration through the brake pedal when I applied the brakes. My first thought was that ice has frozen on one of the brakes when the car was sitting outside for two weeks. On closer inspection, I noticed that half of the disk on the right rear brake is rusty while the bottom half of the disk is clean. Looks like one of the brake pistons is stuck. All the other disks look okay. I put the car in my heated garage overnight last night to see if there is some ice stuck in the brakes. If that doesn't work, I'm going to take the car in for service.

Anyone else notice this issue? The way to check is to inspect all four wheels and if you only see rust on one of the disks, you have a problem...
