[200q20v] Front caliper dragging

[Bernie Benz]

John,

Do you want to do it right, or just f*** around?  If the former, overhaul
all four calipers and flush the fluid.  A dirty but cheap job ($5. for
fluid) that will result in the best stock 44 chassis brakes for the next
300K miles, with biannual fluid changes.  Love my UFOs.

Bernie
