IML: Brakes Pulling



As well, on a Mercedes mailing list I'm on, a few years back it was noted that a govt study showed that rotors do not necessarily need to be turned unless they are warped. There was no appreciable difference in braking ability nor in wear.

For the pulling to one side, most often steering components or bushings in the suspension are at fault. If one wheel turns by hand ALOT more difficulty, maybe therein lies the trouble, but it would have to be alot of resistance. Maybe a seized caliper? Dick B. is spotlessly on the mark as a rule, hoses should be renewed periodically.

If you notice in the service manual that it says the rotors must not be =
turned. Some think this is B/S & any rotor should be able to be turned.
