Hi all

My Omega has recently started pulling to one side whilst braking.  This is more noticable at higher speeds but when i apply the brakes the steering snatches to one side for a second then the car settles down and brakes as normal. it feels as though one front brake is working before the other which makes the car quite unstable under braking.

I have had both front wishbones replaced, new front discs & pads 5 months ago by my local Vaux dealer and a full 4 wheel alignment done recently also.  car was initially ok after work was done and has only started this behavour in the last 3 weeks or so.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Have the brakes been bled??

I guess at wishbones! Bet they tightened them up before settling the suspension down.

Yep brakes were bled when rear pads were changed, about 6 months ago

I would take it back to Vx under warranty.   Maybe a caliper sticking?

I'd guess at wishbones too... Just because they've been replaced doesn't mean they can't have failed again!

Take it back!

I would put money on a sticky caliper!!!
