Pain & Anger
: "69 / 72 bug is having a mystery brake situation, front passenger side. It stops like there are no pads at all on that corner. Super slow, no problem. At 5 mph it stops instantly, hard, like metal against metal. At higher speed it barely stops and makes a strange clicking sound. Disk Brakes/New pads."
