Rifter brake pedal feedback
Summary of the thread
A 2022 Peugeot Rifter owner reported unusual feedback from the brake pedal, suspecting undervoltage affecting the ABS. Another Rifter owner suggested checking the brake calipers for sticking, as they had experienced a similar issue. Upon inspection, the original poster found the calipers were indeed the problem and resolved the issue by replacing them and the brake fluid.

Thanks for the quick reply! I visually inspected the calipers, but didn't check for sticking specifically. How did you diagnose that?

Well, the mechanic noticed during a routine inspection, to be honest. I hadn't really put my finger on it. If you're getting unusual feedback, and the pads are okay, it's worth having a workshop take a closer look at the whole brake system, especially the calipers and the hydraulic components.

Took your advice and had the brake calipers checked. Turns out that was indeed the problem. Replaced them, along with the brake fluid. Total cost was 240€. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

I have a Rifter too, though not a 2022 model. I had a similar feeling in the brake pedal a while back. Did you check the brake calipers? In my case, one of them was sticking. It wasn't obvious at first glance.
