S80 Pulls to the Left When Braking
I just finished replacing the oil pan o-rings which required disconnection of the subframe and was very difficult to align to reattach. Now I'm wondering whether that has taken a toll on the front end or brakes or both.
Since that job the car began pulling hard to the left whenever I would brake. I suspected a bad caliper and replaced the right side. It definitely reduced how much it pulls but didn't completely eliminate it. It almost feels like the right side kicks in later than the right if that makes any sense.
So now I'm wondering whether it's a wheel alignment matter or what.
On a related note, what's the best way to analyze whether a clunk is related to ball joints or drive axles?
