Pulling to left when braking hard

(1/2) > >>

18Edition30:
Car seems to be pulling to the left when heavy braking and wobbling all over the place!

Any ideas? Still on standard brakes and was always fine until recently, seems unstable under hard braking.

Andy:
Possibly a sticky caliper

18Edition30:
How would I check for that bud?

xjay1337:
Sounds like bushes have gone.

That would cause it to veer unde braking and sometimes acceleration.
I replaced my console and front wishbone bushes which resolved that issue on my mk5, and don't forget sn alignment.

I've got an anti lift kit waiting to go on, so that should help with an alignment. Did you uprate the front bushes? Or just stay OEM?
