Not really sure how you cure that. Id just take off both calipers and clean them up and make sure the pistons move freely. Then see what happens. :D

think the mechanic said summat about its due to the pads on one side being more worn than the other, so he'll either shave a bit off of one side or most likely just get some new pads which should cure the problem :-)

If your mechanic is even semi-decent, he should realise that it is likely down to one of the calipers sticking slightly, or a defective hose. If he doesnt realise that is what the problem is take your car elsewhere.
