I bought a 2007 Jaguar x type 3.0 and all of the brakes are not releasing. Took to dealership and they said I needed all new calipers! Before I took it to them I had it on the lift and we loosen one of the bleeder valve's and it would release like that but any other way. Is there a known issue with the brakes not releasing??? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Welcome to the forums bigdeez,

All four calipers sticking. Big coincidence but possible if the vehicle has been standing for a long time. I'd suspect master cylinder as the primary culprit

Welcome to the Forums.

Agree with Graham,
AND
Some person has changed the brake pads without releasing the bleed nipple, and pushed all the crud back into the ABS system, huge OOPS.

Good luck.
