Hey guys, how do you bed in your pads when you change them at a meet?
You can’t drive around for 300 miles lol.
It takes me about 3 - 4 weeks to bed in standards pads, I only use my car once a week and drive correctly on the motorway and don’t need to use my brakes, except when coming off onto the slip road.
I have heard something about driving with your foot on the pedal for about 5 seconds then off for 5 and repeat 10 times. Is there any truth to this?
Or one big heavy press, something about a heat cycle. I would hate to glaze the pads and would like to give these pads a proper test once bed in.
Thanks in advance

found out these are fast road pads but are too old "last made sept 93" to find the correct bed in procedure. So I guess treat them as fast road pads. _________________ x2 33 16v
