Im now on rs14 with pf discs

i did the same and was convinced it was warped but i now reckon it was pad deposits. Not easy to see, just need to somehow clean up the discs

I was always told that you just needed to go for a good 'drive' to clean them up again.....


how do the pagids compare to ds2500's then?

I wouldn't mind trying something else in my AP's

DS2500 are made of chocolate, Pagids aren't

I cleaned them up a treat, I fitted new pads, they were horrendous, I run my own garage so i hope I could tell the difference, they were definitely warped as run out proved.

Ive had them skimmed so they should now be sweet

It was after the "good drive" that it started

AP skimmed mine for free but it came back as you are basically still taking the top off the cirve and the disc is still warped

they replaced them next FOC

did you get yours from AP?

I've had mine skimmed twice now, but as I got them from graham goode they didnt want to know anything about them when I told them they were warped.... being consumables and all that

bought the BBK kit from Questmeads

but then rang Pete Collen at AP who looks after the workshop and tech help and he told me to go in and see him

had it on the ramp and discs of and skimmed

went back two months later and he swapped them


didnt play it big balls out, just told him like it was and asked what to do and he just helped me

nbeen there twice since and he is always eager to help if there is space on the ramp

[northernjim]

that that level of service still exists is good to hear


just wish I'd called them up
