Grug Member 1,318 Member For: 18y 5d Posted 04/12/09 10:12 PM Posted 04/12/09 10:12 PM So what is actually wrong with them? I'm assuming its just the sh*tty type of pads they use? Would it be possible to annoy them enough with getting them fixed every time it happens for them to upgrade them for free? Lol.

Lol.Brakes will be covered! I killed my first set in about 10k kmsAnd they replaced them! Then I warped the rotors in the hills morning and they machined them! Then I really hammered them just out of south dandalup so its time for proper upgrade after christmas!But since its pretty common, they'll cover it but will try and get out of it!Kael got warranty for his diff bushes week before last and I think he had same issues with ford being twats!

The hotter and drier it gets... >_< Glad to hear I should be able to get them machined under warranty at least.Need slotted!

They seem to be a fair bit better, and I've only had them shudder a tiny bit around powercruise after 5 very hard laps around barbs. Once they cooled off they are back to 100% again

Supposed to be saving right now too :/Good to hear they worked fine after cooling off!
