Hi The mrs complained about her Volvo V40 being v sluggish recently so I've been driving it to work. It does require more throttle to achieve the same acceleration and feels like its pulling back at the time. It has also developed a constant vibration from under the seat, not the steering wheel and a pull to the left. So I drove about 5 miles including national speed limit roads without breaking (that was fun! :D ) and pulled over to feel the discs to see if any were binding. All were cold except the drivers side front which was slightly warm :headvswal How hot should a disc get if the caliper is sticking enough to want to slow the car down all the time. The symptoms dont seem as bad after a bit of driving which I guess could be the caliper warming up and loosening. But the pull to the left would suggest the passenger side wouldn't it?? :headvswal I guess I should remove the driv side caliper and lube it up but could it be anything else as its not really that hot? Any other tests I can do? Cheers :bow: Pete
