Yay no more ABS judder!
 
Finely got around to having my cv joints replaced now Ive found a cheap mechanic (a VAG mech). Also had me new rear caliper fitted to. Still abit paranoid about the caliper what with it having 2 sets of pads since oct b4 the new caliper went on. Even tho its not burniung hot (i can touch it) the disc on that side is still getting warmer but not boiling like it was. Could that just be due to where that disc will b slightly more worn than the other the pad bedding in?

imho brakes should be changed in 2's it could be the odd wear pattern making them feel different

RudeDogg1 02-05-09 06:44 AM

it was changed in a pair each time fella yep cost me 60 quid in pads thus far

RudeDogg1 02-05-09 06:45 AM

tell you somthing just pulled some grooved and drilled disk's on and when they are up to tempruture my abs dont work as the wheels just lock up if you stamp hard

strange, mine its just the 1 side that used to seive im paranoid about but when it was bad u couldnt touch it even the alloy would b hot. It just gets warm now just wormer than the other side i hope its nothing but my paranoia

if your not happy i would get them stripped, checked and re newed if required after all they are the MOST IMPORTANT BIT ON THE CAR.

RudeDogg1 02-05-09 04:25 PM

pads r only a week old lol its already been stripped its a whole new caliper

afcbadam 02-05-09 06:51 PM

is the caliper fitted correctly. its worth taking the wheel off and checking. after all these are the only things that stop you plowing in to a wall!

RudeDogg1 02-05-09 11:00 PM
