    What will cause brake pressure to build to one front wheel?
    It often happens in city traffic and sometimes after the engine start.
    It's a gradual increase in brake pressure to only the left front wheel. I can stop and release the pressure and drive farther, it rarely happens on a wide highway. 24k miles.

    Contaminated brake fluid? Moisture in the lines might cause this.

    It's been a crash recovery, I keep the bleeder screw finger tight.
    Both front brakes might be unwelcomed pressure at times.
