rich83 - Edition 30..... Breaking
rich83:
Discs were cheeeeeeeap mate :happy2:
rich83:
A bit of progress.
Pads were f*cked.... not good. Brembo HP Sport
Not much room to get the wrench in (yes I know you shouldnt use a torque wrench to undo bolts)
Just go the change the brake fluid and bleed them properly.
rich83:
I intended to buy some new calipers and carriers soon and change them over as these are very very tatty.
rich83:
Fluid out of the reservoir
Went for a little drive. The brake pedal does seem a bit firmer than before, which has given them a nicer "bite"
Pads sweep the entire surface of the 282mm discs, so no lip will form.
Happy! :jumpmove:
doylebros:
That fluid is very dark for a vehicle which gets such TLC Rich, how long since its been changed and are you removing the pre filter on the reservoir?
You never said how you found your new pressure bleeder?
