On my Corsa '94 Diesel as soon as I start the engine the break pedal immediately goes down a few inches (which causes the break lights to come on) and needs lifting up to resolve this. The breaks also feel stuck to the discs/grinding when I drive. Could it be just the pads that need replacing (they seem on the thin side upon inspection) or something else?

Sorry, I'm a novice on Corsa's. Car has been driving great until this.
