Had this problem for a while, changed the old bushes to poly ones as most here asid this would cure the problem......made no difference whatsoever so decided to take a closer look at the brakes.

 

Checked all pistons individually and all are moving ok although on the left side i noticed the top clip that hold the top straight rod that runs left to right that holds the top of the spring that holds in the pad (still with me????) was not there and the pin was halfway out which also meant the spring was twisted...............put all this back with a new clip but not yet tested.

 

Without sounding too desperate and still not tested yet, if it still does it what could it be?????

Hi mate

 

Yes when mine went I had to pump the brakes to get them to stop and I have 8 pots and 6pots! Your absolutely right the hubs hold the disks tight.

 

Not sure but I dont think they are too expensive..

 

I used to have a 996 thought I recognised the name.

I'll give Z centre a call for a price.....

 

Checked again and the left offside definately has some movement there.

 

I'll change that one then check it again...think the bearings are only about £30 quid.

 

Cheers
