I HAVE DONE ABOUT 3 OR 4 SETS OF BRAKES ON MY VARIOUS SAABS I'VE HAD, AND THE ONE THING I NOTICED WHEN I DID 2 OF THE BREAK JOBS WAS THAT WHEN YOU BANG ON THE ROTOR TO GET IT OFF THE BEARING, ITS USUSALLY THE LAST STRAW THAT BREAKS THE CAMELS BACK.( BASICALLY YOU INTERNALLY DESTROY THE BEARING) TRY JACKING YOUR CAR UP AND SHAKE YOU WHEEL, AS IF YOU WERE GOING TO PUT + OR - CAMBER IN IT AND SEE IF THERE IS ANY PLAY IF YOU FIND SOME THAN THAT BEARING IS SHOT! AND YOU SHOULD REPLACE IT WITH A DECENT USED ONE IF POSSIBLE. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK TRY TO RESET YOUR BREAKS USING THE SAAB BRAKE TOOL (ITS A PAIN IN THE ASS BUT SAABS CAN BE THAT WAY.) IF YOU ARE GOING TO REPLACE YOUR BEARING YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A 250FTLB TORQUE WRENCH TO DO SO SOOO.... GOOD LUCK
