<x-charset iso-8859-1>I posted this originally in The Shop Talk Forums no one had any response, maybe someone here will have an idea on what is up. The outward pads on both calipers are not grabbing with the whole friction area of the pad. On the outside face of the left rotor about 1/8 of the pad area is not being used, the bottom area closest to the knuckle. On the right side about only 25% of the outer pad is grabbing the rotor. So about 75% of the surface area closest to the knuckle is also not being used. This is not the case with either of the inner pads. They both seem to be grabbing completely. It makes me think is has something to do with the piston. Both of the calipers are NEW, and the pads seem to be installed correctly. I had the drums turned, same thing still happens. I also cleaned (sanded) the pads, nothing. Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/ </x-charset>
