eh...looks like your brakes gone ady

You mean the brake pad?

hurmm

mind to share with me how u determines that his brake is gone?

where u look at?

ps: newbie wana learns

I assume he means that my brake pad too thin or gone d

If u can see a line at ur disc brake, u have to change the pad and the disc.
That's what happen when i bought my rims last time. They discover the sound is actually eat up my disc

there are two parts of a brake pad...the fiction material and the back metal piece. Fiction material is what stops the car...not the back metal piece. Think about it...metal scratching against metal...what happens? Your brake disc will spoil.

Think about it this way...
the road is your brake disc,
the tyre is the fiction material,
your rims is the back metal piece.

what happens if you remove the tyre from the equation?
honestly...I cannot see the fiction material on your brake pad already...pls change it. Safety first...

Btw, i just isntalled my spotlight at Kedai Abang Ampang. Cap ayam only.

Izzit like loud screeching sound? My problem oso same as urs last time...
Low speed very loud but when going fast no sound...

Same la. <50km/h sound like my ear will bleed.

oh my god...you guys...Malaysian dun care attitude ka?
if there's ANY funny noise from the car, I'll check it immediately. You guys know that repair is always more expensive than replacing rite...but if you have cash/annual bonus to throw away, then its ok

So its brake pad prob eh? Any nice brand with nice price to recommend?
Eh azuma,how's the light beam and how much u payed?
Btw,i went to an accessories shop to ask for cai hose and they are selling RM80 without installation

Rm68 per pair
But i'm not sure about relay. rm48 the relay. got rm10 punya relay but looks very simple
