Hi all, I have done a search, but all answers lean towards brakes or bearings. I have a disco 300tdi and on saturday it started pulling to the left on braking, also noticed it pulls to the right when breaking in reverse. I have checked brakes, they are all working, checked for movement in the wheels and they are solid, any ideas anyone, Thankyou

they may seem like they are all working but it seems to me you may have a sticking caliper (or indeed seized) on the o/s.
worth another look:car:

The fact that it pulls the other way in reverse would suggest some sort of movement in the axle to me. Either near side front or offside rear.

Of course, like noises, it's always easier to diagnose when you experience it first hand.

How did you check the calipers? This is classic behaviour for a sticking or seized caliper.
