Re: [T3] Brake problem - revisited.

["Dave Hall" <dave@hallvw.clara.co.uk>]

If it pulls one way when you brake, then the opposite when you stop
braking, it sounds as if one caliper isn't working well.  It doesn't
move when braking starts, then doesn't retract when braking stops.
This could be a fault in the caliper, or maybe a blockage or
internally collapsed flexible hose.  The latter is a much more
common cause of brake balance faults than is generally recognised.
I suspect they are all original ones at the end of their life.
Mine looked fine, but I could hardly blow through them, they were so
narrowed.
