Hi guys
So as most of you know I had bremtech discs and ferodo ds2500 pads fitted all round in December 2012.
After driving for approx 25000/30000 miles in a very fast road use kind of way (go for drives in the country side twice or three times a week) I need to replace.
Now you might be thinking wow thats lasted long but wait it gets better...
...After having them inspected I need to replace:
1) Front Pads
and that is all
!
The rear discs and pads are great and the front discs again are great just the pads have worn down so getting another set of them for next week. I can't believe after all of that driving they are fine apart from front pads.
Anyways I thought this would be a good time to have a mini Brake Service and need some advice. I am changing the brake fluid when the pads get changed and am ***uming anything dot4 with a high boiling point is good?
And also I am going to fit some braided brake hoses. My brake hoses now have never been changed and I am coming up to 95k miles so thinking of changing but do not know what to get or where to get it from.
The brands I have seen are:
1) Tarox
2) Hel
3) Goodrige
4) Black Diamond
I have heard of hel lines breaking early? Anyone can recommend any and where to buy from. I see goodrige lines on demon tweaks for only £30 and hel on another site for £75?
Thanks all and if you want amazing performing brakes that last get the above
