Hi

Anyone had problems bedding in Black Diamond front pads? Just put a set on my 97 Turbo (PP418) and got this:



Now I don't think it is a calliper issue or anything because it is the same on both sides, and ther last set were contacting normally over the whole disk. I haven't done many miles yet admittedly, but has looked like this since I first drove with them, and it doesn't seem to be improving...

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Aaron

Hi Aaron, did you check the pad size against the ones fitted previously? The pad obviously isn't making contact over the full disc width. Could the discs somehow be warped and the old pads may tell you if you look at them, they would dip in towards the middle. It does look strange. I use Black Diamond pads and have never had any problems.

As above mate, Check the shape of the original ones they should be the same you might have the wrong ones. I have BD's and had no problems.

I also have BD (the FT pads mind) and they are great!
