Caliper Loose, Pin Sloppy? 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Mike G. on  Thu Nov 18 05:45 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Most likely the hole in the bracket caliper is worn. If it's just clacking a bit, I would not get too excited, but if it's hanging up and causing the steering wheel to oscillate during braking, it's time for new ones. I just put Volvo rebuilts on my 940, each bracket from the dealer was like 30 bucks. Even the rebuilts will have some slop, but they were better than my old ones as the oscillation has stopped.
