Yup, take "experience" out of the equation and we are back to the horse designed by a committee  :bang:

Glad you got it sorted eventually.

Hmmmmm..... maybe it is the ABS that makes it pull up straight. :coffee:

I guess the brake tester machine measures through the tyres, not the hydraulic pressure directly?  There are a whole bunch of things that cause brake imbalance.. :scratch:

Darren:
Thanks, the bit that bothers me is the spending of £200 to get back where I started changing bit's that didn't need changing in the first place... :doh:

Doubtful otherwise my whole braking would have to be 60% down. And it has great brakes. Also you can tell when the ABS comes into play and it's not doing that.


The brake tester is a pair of driven rollers that you brake on. The measurements are then shown on a computer.

Are all 4 wheels on driven rollers at the same time and is each roller independly powered? Is the imbalance a left to right issue or a front to back issue? :doh:
