Front Brake Disc cracks


Recommended Posts

Posted

OK MOT time revealed a bad point in my car , found both my front disc had minute cracks covering the discs. Using Pagid discs and Ds2500 pads anyone else experienced this or am I maybe being a tad boistrous in my braking? My discs and pads lasted just 15months and about 12K BTW face-icon-small-shocked.gif

What options do I have for an upgrade? (Cheaply LOL)

my first set of new pads managed 4 weeks( mintex m1144 with new discs all round) ,

replaced them after 3 weeks (ebc green stuff) ,

then had to replace the disc again as there were flapping around !(radiating cracks from center to outside)

all within 7 weeks and 2800 miles face-icon-small-sad.gif thought it was going to cost me just as much cash in pads as it does in optimax!

so decided to stop messing around and went for 335mm brembo 4 pot system from Godspeed (original 2 pots)

this kit now been on the car 4 month and nearly 8000miles face-icon-small-smile.gif

but my retinas have now detached from my eyeballs face-icon-small-wink.gif
