Default Civic brakes dragging(HELP) ive searched

i just got a 92 hatch and its got all disc brakes on it but the drag and make a wierd noise for the first few minuets of driving. are they just dirty? or do you guys think the system wasnt bled properly? ive heard from people you bleed the brakes from farthest away from the MC to the closest... but then i hear you are supposed to start from the right rear, then left front, then left rear, then right front. can anyone confirm the right sequence for me please then ill go bleed the brakes and tell ya if im still having the issues , thank HT guys

is it the just rear brakes or both front and rear? The rear disk brakes could have a siezed slide pin or ebrake cable. if its all the brakes it could still be slide pins are siezed or a problem with the caliper

I made a post about my rear brakes dragging. I was told that it is normal for the rears to drag. Even "Brake Expert" made a post saying it was a normal thing for the pads to touch slightly.

If it is the front, you may have a problem.
