850GLT 93, ugly braking!

Nov 24, 2006 5 Replies

Hi: My 1993 850 is having a new hanky panky: when braking at speeds above



45MPH, the whole car quakes and it sounds like something knocking in the right real whell.

I think it could be an ABS problem. Some idea?



Best regards Oscar



Make sure that the bolts holding the caliper on are tight.

could be a seized caliper or a warped rotor

Have you worked on the brakes lately? If so the caliper may be loose. Otherwise I would check for warped rotors.

Thanks for the answers. That´s true: several weeks ago a rear disck brake pads was made, so I´ll check it.

I'd look at the rubber bushings on the rear control arms (delta links in Volvo-speak).
