Lesabre brakes
I have a 2002 Lesabre that I replaced the brake pads on the front and rear. I now only have about a third pedal. I would like at least 2/3 pedal. What did I do wrong or what should I have done? If more info is needed please let me know.
Thanks |
This is only speculation without more info.
If the rotors were not completely flat the pads are making contact with only the larger portion of the rotor and not the complete surface. Until the pads wear to the same angle as the rotors only part of the pad is contacting the rotor. The pad actually turns and the piston extends giving a soft and partial pedal. You can kinda confirm this by looking at the old pads and probably see that they were not worn completely flat. The inside of the pad is either thicker or thinner than the outside. Rotors should have been trued. |
