hahha...same case..mine also smoked till no brake..scared sh1t shocking.gif
This method is good enough already? means can be said already bedded in? hmm.gif

Anyway the 1 thing that caught my attention with the Brake pads is..NO MORE sound when braking thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

BTW just done balancing RM5/tyre thumbup.gif and he gave me free nitrogen gas for all 4 tyres flex.gif Feel so much smoother now

the nitro gas can mix with normal air at those petrol station?

They say better don't or not later no effect...anything can bring back to the same shop to top up for free rclxms.gif

However he did mentioned if emergency u need to top up the air at petrol station also can...but don;t do it so frequent or if lil bit only then still ok..

Try not to do it for too long. True that it beds in faster, but when u drive down from Genting or downhill anywhere that requires constant braking for the first time, ur brakes gonna suck.
*
How come ah? care to explain further...i mean im not going to repeat this process anymore tongue.gif i think bedding in kao tim d
so would it still be alright to go genting like in a few months time or so?

QUOTE(xandras @ May 22 2011, 02:08 PM)
Because when u bed in that way, u're actually creating heat on the brake pads. When u hold the brakes while driving, u skimmed a thin layer off the brake pads. This is actually not enough yet. When u do near-complete halt braking from 100kmh, the brake compound is spreaded evenly onto the rotors. Therefore, when u really need ur brakes to perform at higher temperatures such as downhill from genting, it may not perform that well if u practice the constant brake holding method of bedding in. True, for daily rides that method of bedding in is more than sufficient, but I strongly suggest that u try to do some high heat high speed braking a few times to ensure that it can work better at higher temp when u need it.
*
actually i did that (or so i think i did)...i drove to 100kmh and then i press the brake then let go..then drive to 100 again n brake..did that a few times..correvt method?

Must be careful though. Sometime u really need to check your bottle after buying it, especially from spare part shops. There had been cases of spare part dealers refilling empty engine oil bottles with used engine oil.
Follow lah.. I can ensure u ur next 30 years will be spent as bald as a monk.. whistling.gif
U skipped through certain pages? I made a thorough explanation on API ratings just 2 days ago. Will re-quote it here.
Why sell? No power enough? Wan use works? brows.gif

API ratings are not read like that. The engine oil may be produced this year but still hold a SL rating. The ratings actually tells the customers what kind of tests the engine oil have been through. It doesn't decide how old is the engine oil.

Ah..i got it...some extra info for those still blur blur API RATINGS flex.gif
