My 1995 855T has 'good' brakes. But every once in a while I will get a light shudder when stopping from 55mph. When I removed the red glue from the pads and the caliper piston, the front brakes started to behave much better, and have been getting better each year(3).
I noticed that when I apply the brakes lightly while backing down the driveway, the car turns to the right - right front might be grabbing more than the left.
But, when I start going forward on level pavement, it does the opposite! Slight drag to the left with the brake lightly applied.
Is this a caliper problem? A pad problem? A rotor problem? An alignment problem? Bad control arm bushings?
I am looking for input, not a fix. This car is about to go on blocks for the winter. It is starting to get too cold in the garage.
