last time had a jammed caliper....u will realise it when you're on 3-5 degree hill slope, your car wont roll back.
Usually won't jam immediately. Mine can feel that the car will roll to a stop faster, then you know something is wrong already. Then after a drive just touch the wheel and if one is hotter then you know that one jamming up...

Hmm.. I've never worked a twin piston before. But concept is the same. Come come let unker Izso molest your calipers.

:biggrin:

Oh wait.. That sounds so wrong.

my experience with 06 stock and new myvi(back then) has this problem, never bother much. its so damn obvious when change pads, one side wear 75%, the other 50%. it does swerve under very hard braking, but not much when doing sane speed and normal braking.

Because Myvi is for normal use and to be driven at sane speed.....kakakakaka:rofl:

Should check the brakes, could be binding on one side....:hmmmm:
