Does anyone understand this brake printout ??

Still having problems with my brakes , so want to know if anyone can read this printout from my last mot .

Basically I want to know which side is the crappy side ......

Your brakes are not balanced. The braking on the right is much better than on the left.

That is what I thought, but underneath the line where it shows the 73% figure it appears that when the braking force on the left is 225.3 the force on the right is only 60.7. It doesn't seem very clear to me.

Not sure about that, but the difference seems to be 73%. Your right brake is 73% better.

Thanks , yeah I know they were unbalanced as they failed the mot , but since then it's happened again , so obviously an underlying problem on one of the sides ..... So it's possibly the left side that has the problem ?

The maximum difference between the two brakes happens at 225.3.

Ive got a big difference in mine aswell, if you figure anything out, post it up

Basically it keeps happening ! The brakes are unbalanced again and I think the same bearing has gone again , don't think it's done to calipers as the brakes don't get hot at all ! And it's always the left side ?

I've read an exact same scenario else where and it turned out to be a bad hub .

Its my left side thats working fine. When i brake hard it pulls the car to the left.

 

[kaz_quiksilver]

Ahh mine doesn't pull , just judders bad , and I know it ain't a sticky caliper as the wheels don't get hot .

Is the Clio ABS intelligent enough to unbrake a single side/wheel?

 

[kaz_quiksilver]

No idea ..... Plus side to owning a cup , no abs to worry about or go wrong
