So I'm guessing this might be a symptom of an upcoming issue so I thought I would ask. When I am on flat ground and i put my truck in drive or reverse but take my foot off the brake the truck doesn't start to move or coast. I know that is use to. Is this a symptom of an upcoming issue? (2002 Discovery 200K miles)

I had a similar issue for a while.. sometimes it would roll other times not. A month ago during a wheeling trip my brakes started squeaking bad.. got home pulled the wheel and the pads were shot. Went to put new pads in and the caliper was seized. My guess is that the caliper was sticking, causing the truck to not want to move.

Something to check anyway...

Definitely could be a brake caliper dragging..
