    FN2 Uneven Front Brake Pad Wear (Brembo Pads with EBC Blade Discs)

    I agree. You see the air pocket in the rubber cover as it bulges when pressing in. This tells you all is well. I will certainly check this on all future brake pad changes. I am glad I only had £24 Brembo pads and not £80 redstuff pads when this problem was happening! Interestingly...

    FN2 Uneven Front Brake Pad Wear (Brembo Pads with EBC Blade Discs)

    It came with the carrier too. I brought it brand new from Cox Motorsports: https://www.coxmotorparts.co.uk/honda-shop/genuine-nissin-civic-type-r-fn2-front-left-passenger-brake-caliper/ I do have an update...I took the caliper off last week and checked the slider pins. The bottom one was...

    FN2 Uneven Front Brake Pad Wear (Brembo Pads with EBC Blade Discs)

    I checked the drivers side pads today and they are wearing normally. Thus, there is definitely uneven breakpad wear on the side with the new caliper. As far as I know the caliper is not sticking. What could cause one side to wear much more quicker than the other?

    The slider pin moves freely (and were moving freely when I fitted the pads).

    Brake Fluid and Transmission Fluid Advice (FN2)

    Thanks for this informative post. I have actually just bought Amsoil MTF fluid from Opie Oils. I was reading a lot about fluids on various forums, and in addition to the fact that my current fluid was changed 3 years and 17k miles ago with MTF3, the occurrence of the crunch and occasional...

    Brake Fluid and Transmission Fluid Advice (FN2)

    Thanks for this information (and forum discount info) Benny. The crunch happens in all of the gears, but particularly 2nd, 3rd, and 4th (maybe even 5th). I can change gears well above 6500 rpm (in fact very close to the rev limiter) and most times it will be fine, but on the odd occasion...

    Brakes: My brake fluid is due to be changed - how much do I need of the Dot 4 Honda stuff (comes in 500ml bottle). Will 1 litre be enough? Also, is there a forum discount when ordering from Cox? Transmission Fluid I have crunchy gears when changing quickly in vtec. Otherwise shift is...
