[QUOTE="Moseley, post: 581421, member: 20098"] Any rubbing is bad - you're risking everything getting hotter and expanding more and potentially then locking the wheel on. If it ran freely before parking up, but now it is binding, slackening the adjusters may help temporarily, but it is more likely that the pistons need freeing up to stop them seizing again. Personally, I'd strip, inspect, clean and re-assemble the brake assembly and find out the cause of it sticking. [/QUOTE]
