Hi all,
A few weeks ago the front brakes started rumbling under braking. I got the front offside wheel off but both pads still had 5mm left. I then took it for it's MoT and it nearly failed on worn brake pads so I bought some and fitted them when I got home. The nearside pads where only just above minimum thickness (1.6mm in the Fiesta IIRC).
Is there anything wrong or is it because I often brake hard while turning right at roundabouts? :) (I suspect not as surely the braking force applied to the pads isn't related to the load on the wheel).
Can't be a sticking calliper can it? I'd imagine that would cause different pad wear rates on the same wheel but each pad was the same thickness as it's partner.
Not much difference I know but I'd like to sort it.
Thanks,
Peter.
