Postby fdo » Thu Jul 10, 2003 5:29 am

Hi guys.. I Installed my EBC rotors + brakepads and metal brake lines.. brake response is fast... you can feel the difference... but the problem is that the god rotor turn to gray, and it smells... and the brake light goes one and off in the the road.. i realized it goes on when going down hill or slope.. ANy one know what is the prob??? and anyone know why does the brake smells?? is it because the brakes are holding the rotor too tight?

The golden finish goes away after about 50 miles becoming a very shiney silver, at least mine did :). EBC says to allow up to 500 urban miles for a bed in period.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.

You may have screwed up the break-in period.
