rear brake pads

Featured Replies

hi i've got though two sets of rear pads to one set of fronts in 37000 ish miles dose this sound like there is something wrong or is this normal for the fabia vrs:confused:

37k for 2 sets of rear pads?

The VRS hardly uses it's rear brakes so I would say there might be an issue

have the pads actually worn out , or are you taking the garages word for it that they are worn , when there is actually loads left on the pads ?

my rear pads were changed last November , they had done over 50k , and were only changed because they had been on the track once to often and had overheated :D

How long are your tyres lasting? If rears not lasting much longer than fronts then pressure (reducing) valve may be at fault.
