I think my front right caliper is sticking.
First indication was a few weeks ago when I went in for an alighnment and the tech told me the right pads where wearing faster than the left ones.
Next indication is....as I brake hard the car will veer to the left. Wouldn't that mean the right caliper is sticking and not letting the pistion come out as fast/hard, thus not braking as hard?
Sound like a sticking caliper to you?
If so....I've never bought or installed relacement caliper(s). SHoud I buy just one or replace both? I'd like to keep the OEM quality so would I just buy replacements at the parts store or is there a reasonable brand everyone likes? When installing the relpacemnets, would you just bleed them as normal to get them filled with fluid?
Thanks for any feedback guys. I've got 130,000 on my 99 GTZ and still love the car. WOuld love to keep her rolling for a few more years!!!
