,they were new march 2020 ,delph from island 4x4,the pads were still like new ,and one disk was ok ,but the drivers side was rusted beyond belief no braking surface on the inside , but to be fair 3 years for half the price i just paid to replace them with ,I wonder if those mud shields protect more than i though ,cause mines all gone now ...
Was the surface rusted because it wasn't contacted by the pad?Today i replaced the rear pads n disks ,
As above, one side rusted = sticking slide pins.Was the surface rusted because it wasn't contacted by the pad?
If it's not worn on the Inside it could be a seized piston? Single piston on the rear and on the Inside!
If the piston is on the inside and it's the inside surface that is rusted, I'm not sure how a seized piston would allow pressure to be applied via the slide pins to the outside? Maybe the whole assembly has seized, piston and slide pins?
Yip, it does pose the question??
..the disk had shiny bits where the pad was touching , rubbing but part of the braking surface had disintegrated,but only on inside. the piston side ,I felt it like a warped disk week or two ago and though like you"s sticking slider ,had a look under wi a torch ... cant tell what i said when i see it ,gutted ,but went out today and its ever so smooth wi the new stuff on,..I serviced all 4 ,the front was fine,,,But a strange thing was ,the disks that came off ,wouldn't fit in the new ones boxes ,the old ones were thicker my new ones are apec, ,im a happy bunny for now.. thanks for the input
My Fusion has been written off 3 times now - keeping it til it dies so doesn't bother me. Cat D crash damage about a year earlier when I got it, had opposite 1/4s shoved by idiots since and Cat N'd both times. Had nearly half what I paid for it 80k and 12 years ago now in payouts.
I wonder how many folks even use those buttons?
I used to when I had the P38
I do to lower and lock at motorway height
Hope that's all it is.
