Could the pad material have separated completely from the backing as opposed to just wearing out? Normally I'd expect around 20k miles out of a set of pads myself.________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |

Ha sounds like my predicament, bought a valeo clutch and flywheel for the td5 didn't have time to fit it as my dad was off on business and I was running he farm....Took it to he garage down the road... First problem was he clutch plate was wrong.... Ok I thought its not meant to happen but it does.. Turns out knobhead and co put it in back to front..... THey take it apart and replace it. I get it back ftw front prop isn't tightened up so rattles its bag off, Tightening it up on side of the road and promptly bollocking them honk nothing of it, three months later its juddering and squealing again, but seen as the overpriced bill was paid and deducted off my wages by the dim farm secretary I haven't a leg to stand on.... And there's no way I'm risking another £900 bill (parts inc) ________________________________________ '97 PH1 'Sigma Blue' 306 GTI 6 project 'Tooters'194.2bhp 127.6 dB '96 PH1 'Black Noir' 306 DTurbo (project in permenant storage) '94 300tdi LR Discovery (project gone dead and buried) '99 td5 LR Discovery 2 (trailer tug and family bus) project 'in the garage getting chassis welded' (again) The 6 can go fast, the disco can go anywhere Built: 9 January 1997 - that's a Thursday Skip Brown cars: tarporley Cheshire Tel: 01829 720492 add me --> philbrindley85@hotmail.com TEAM: Snapper  |

And there's no way I'm risking another £900 bill (parts inc) This is why i always prefer to do the work myself these days, cannot trust a lot of garages to complete the work properly. I once paid £800 odd to have a service, cambelt and MOT done on an Xsi, could've done it a lot cheaper myself!! ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

Normally I'd expect around 20k miles out of a set of pads myself. i think this is what may have happened by the state of the worn out pad/disc! there was no pad material left on it at all! still due to being fitted incorrectly! i will soon be taking a house with space to work on the car so i might start learning and buy some tools in the mean time all is well with the car (kiss of death). ________________________________________ Formally team BLAZE now Team bianca recuperating from multiple organ failure nicely! items replaced so far, clutch, cambelt etc, radiator, exhaust, most of front running gear, wish bones, drop links, ball joints, track rod ends, bearings, brakes, calipers, discs, and pads, brake lines, front springs, brake balance compensator thingy, hand brake cable, throttle cable (twice), coil pack, door handle, windscreen, wipers, head lamps several sensors and bulbs  .rear beam new throttle cable, new battery. .......... yeah man, team money pit! but shes still rollin! |

I had some cables attached to my pads when i put them on the Rallye, did the sensors not come standard on these cars? ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!
