Brakes issues

[kieran_cupra]

Hi all,

The car come off the orad in a few weeks to get the inlet manifold polished and the wheels refurbed.

Over the past few days ive noticed that the osf discs seems to be binding? I can hear it when driving with the windows down, sounds like its still rubbing??

I have tarox g88 with tarox pads that ive had on since september. 8000miles

Sound like the pads are dead?

Get good breaking though thats whats confusing me?

Might just be the calipers sticking. Just visually check the pads are ok and get cleaning/lubing the sliders so they move freely.

Sometimes they bind when the pads are low and the piston is at the max disctance to apply pressure.

like phil said, if your pads are ok, it's most likely that your sliders are needing cleaned out. get your spanners out and give em a clean up.
