Beavis Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 This came from a Peugeot. When fitted the disk and pad were fine. If there was ever a reason to reguarly check your brakes even though they have been serviced this it. Anyone? Quote
Zugara Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Incorrect sized Pads for the disk. Badly manufactured disk. Did you have any scrapping or noise while this was going on? Quote
Beavis Posted May 14, 2012 Author Posted May 14, 2012 stone in the calliper?? No Incorrect sized Pads for the disk. Badly manufactured disk. Did you have any scrapping or noise while this was going on? No correct pads used and not a badly manfactured disk. Dont know about the noise was not off a car i own. Quote
Beavis Posted May 14, 2012 Author Posted May 14, 2012 Shim on the wrong way No I have never heard of this before, very unusual Quote
marzman Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Looks to be in line with the circles on the back of the pad, so im going for a manufacturing fault with the pads... or the pads were damaged during fitting. Quote
Beavis Posted May 14, 2012 Author Posted May 14, 2012 so im going for a manufacturing fault with the pads... We have a winner, can you spot it though Pic coming any second. Quote
Zugara Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 The friction material wasnt fully covering the backing plate... Quote
Beavis Posted May 14, 2012 Author Posted May 14, 2012 The friction material wasnt fully covering the backing plate... No, what can you see above? Quote
