Front brakepads are wearing at an 'angle'... any ideas? 200

Hello All,

I replaced my front pads last summer with Volvo oem. One of the pads, before I had replaced them, was cocked at an angle in the caliper, not severely, but enough that the pad had worn at an angle. I checked the pads again today, and they're ready for renewal, but the problem persists. The first time I wrote it off as a poorly-fitting off-brand pad. What gives? Air in the system? One piston is travelling further than the other.

Thanks,
Brian
