Sticking Caliper Rebuild

MrGTI house reference

A GTI that pulls to one side braking, has one wheel hotter than the others after a drive, wears one pad far faster, or drags and hurts economy has a sticking brake caliper — either a seized slider pin or a seized piston. It's common on older cars and usually fixable with a clean/rebuild rather than a new caliper
