Car pulling to the left

[Greeny.]

Ok just got my car back and its still doing this, kinda confused what it could be. Its been happening a few months now but ignored it as ive hardly driven it. Anyway... car pulls to the left constantly, harder when I brake. The car has been fully aligned, camber, tow, caster & tracking checked, all ok. I 'think' the problems first started when I fitted my new brakes, CL RC5's and new discs, ive had these off a few times and found no issues as far as I can tell, they are 100% not binding. Im at abit of a loss what it could be but its kinda dangerous at high speeds when slamming the brakes on as the car just dips and pulls hard to the left.

Ideas please?

Im no expert but could it be a caliper sticking?

will definitely be a sticky caliper

Would the caliper only stick when the cars being driven though? both wheels spin freely when jacked up

Thats an odd one. Im guessing it should stick wether driven or not. Unless it only happens wheh theres pressure on it? I.e when driving

more like one working more effectively than the other than one being stuck on

Fair enough, so best off replacing both to be on the safe side then? Although it stills pulls to the left when im not braking, just coasting around with no pressure on the pedal.

rebuildable. I'd just strip them down fully. Did a set of 4-pot nissan calipers 4 hours before leaving for Germany back in May. Cured a pull to the right that had been present for a year apparently

Fair enough but you would still expect the car to pull even when im not braking? thats the part that is confusing me.

not really possible to tell what's happening just from a description.

Ok, ill book it in a local garage to have a look in the week hopefully, it is weird though, at very slow speeds its fine, at about 15mph+ I have to turn the wheel to keep the car straight and under heavy braking at high speeds 60+ it pulls hard to the left and if i keep my hands off the wheel it then straightens up again when it slows down :/
