'92 940 T brake troubles

posted by  someone claiming to be Sam on  Mon Apr 28 08:03 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Ok, here are the symptoms: Occasionally, when braking the, car will pull one way or the other as I come to a stop. Not really noticeable until the car drops down below 10 mph. In addition, about 85% of the time when braking I get a pronounced shimmy/shake in the steering wheel, but not through the brake pedal itself. I had the car in the shop at the first of the year for new engine seals (something I'm not quite up to doing myself yet) and had them check out the brakes while I was in. They seemed to think they were ok, I am assuming they probably just looked at the pads and rotors, and saw that they weren't worn too badly. I am assuming the likely thing is a seized caliper pin?? Any thoughts??


Thanks,
Sam
