Dear all.
Have my first CSL with AP Racing brakes on front. I know nothing about them, what model etc and more importantly need a set of discs as they are wrapped but don't know what I need or where best to get them from. Cheers in advance. JD

I'd be making sure they're warped and not just built up with pad deposits. What pads are you using?

What he said ^.
Ferodo DS2500 are terrible for this if used aggressively. However, if you need new discs, replace them with Performance Friction ones: http://www.cslregister.com/forum/sho...Friction+discs

It will only take a small amount not even visible to the eye on the pad to disc surface. Rare that these discs warp tbh. If it's just road use it'll be pad deposits. A thorough workout can usually bring them back to life.
Really need to know what pads are fitted. |

Additional. They ate worse when discs have warmed up vibration not really noticeable when cold. Cheers.

For me, I use silicone as it doesn't distort rubber dust seals etc
