Hey Fellas,
So I have an issue with my front brakes, maybe someone can guide me, purty please?
I replaced my Rotors and Pads all around. My front rotors developed what I can best describe as "Pad Imprints" residue. It is just enough to emit vibration noise on the freeway when I have to slow down for an off ramp. Today, a low tone hum developed when driving off from a stop
( sticky piston???, will diagnose tomorrow )
Not my car but from the web:
To the touch, the residue is definitely higher then the rest of the surface of the rotor and I put a brass wire wheel to it. It got better but the imprint is still there and I still hear the vibration but not a pulsating feel like a warped rotor.
So my questions are:
Will this "pad impression" wear off over time or do I need to machine service/turn my new Zimmermans? Pads are Porterfields R4S.
Did I not bed these pads correctly? I was very gentle for the first 200 miles and never sat at a stop with my brakes depressed. Very Strange.
TIA,
Jim
