197 Brembos



  Black 197
Ok so i've had my 197 for a few weeks and everything has been going well until tonight, Been out with a mate to get a munch and it felt as if under braking the car was pulling to the left, I put my window down and again under braking i can hear a creaking from the drivers side caliper ! On arriving back at home i got a tiny piece of water and poured it onto the o/s caliper and it steamed but when i poured water on the drivers side caliper there was no steam just luke warm to the touch.. Passenger side was roasting, Obviously there is a issue with brake balance somewhere but could it be low on pads ? I've only had it 2 weeks so surely something should be done, Got it going into the stealer on friday for some other work lol so will mention this but does anybody have any ideas on the creaking / pulling ??

Sounds like its sticking. If its under warranty they'll have to sort it and put a fresh set of pads in I'd of thought. If not, pull the pull off and get the pads out, then give the pistons a coat of wd40. Put the pads back in and keep pressing the pedal, pushing the pads back out, repeat.

If it was me, I probably would, lol. Just make sure its not properly stuck on and it'll be ok.
