Brake noise

Post by Gareth » Mon Oct 24, 2005 2:40 pm

When at KH my brakes where making a loud noise when braking hard.
Only really did it in the dry when I was driving hard.

Wouldn't say it was a grinding noise, just sounded loud. I was going to pull over to check them but they were working fine.

Pads and disks are new from when I bought the car.

TADTS

They will probably quieten a bit when they are worn in a bit. But they might not. Not a fault, in any case... :)

My rears were on fire in the morning (in the wet!).
D'ya think it's a problem or just keek OEM pads...? ;)

I forsee a warranty caim for new disks and I'll put Pagid pads on...
