Hi

I have a 2004 Galaxy Zetec TDI

I have noticed that the Front Brake Discs are large than the Rear Brake Discs.... why is this ?

Does this affect my braking, as when I brake, the vehicle veers to the left..... I was going to have my brakes checked as I thought that maybe the left front brake caliper is sticking.

Any help appreciated.

Your front brakes are bigger because they do most of the braking. On deceleration the vehicle mass pitches forward over the front of the car hence more powerful rotors needed at the front.

 

Pulling to either side is very likely a duff caliper as you state, get it looked at ASAP.
