Hi to all.
Forgive this thread and please no replies about using the search facility!
Had my leon fr 20vt almost a year.
When I bought the car it had new discs and pads fitted, car was showing 73k.
Within 7k dics were totally shot.
Replaced the discs and pads for Apec items which lasted no time at at all.
Replaced them for another Apec set as I returned them under warranty, pads replaced too.
They lasted no time at all either so returned them and got my money back.
Purchased VW economy discs and pagid vw pads from TPS and installed on 20th March thinking ok the other sets were not genuine and perhaps the 312 set up only likes genuine stuff?
Wrong! warped again, less than 3k.
So before I ask any questions or advice;
Yes they are bedded in properly I dont brake heavy unless some muppet makes me do it!
All hub faces cleaned up properly prior to fitting
Guide pins all free and clean.
Calipers clean, not binding and car pulls up in a straight line.
Thoughts?
I am thinking that its had accident damage and either a carrier or caliper has been damaged? All looks fine and the carriers look right when I installed the last set of discs.
Getting fed up now as you can all imagine!
