badboyV6 4 Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 I bought some new discs from GSF for my old VR. After about 2k of bedding in i then did a high speed stop- and it warped them!!! You could feel it shaking when braking. Last time i ever buy discs from ECP or GSF! Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 usually discs get warped by people not bedding them in properly....or by them being cheap discs (sounds the case with your badboy). as for the other failure...have you got any fault codes on the diagnostics? most likely a failed sensor i'd have thought.
