Question


Puzzled by this one and wonder if anyone can shed any light :

MY 99 No brake mods.

Car in the garage over the weekend and not used - get it out this morning and the brakes simply werent effective - they hardly brought me to a stop - took about 50 mtrs when travelling at 10 mph !

I've had this happen a couple of times before - when I've been presure washing the wheels and been a be overzelous on the capiler. But the car hasnt been washed for yonks !

Now I had the first front pads changed at 22k and I'm now upto 32K and there's plenty of pad left.

So whats causing it - after a while they're fine.

Puzzled
