APPEARANCE
- Uneven wear on braking surfaces. Blue dots in the middle of the braking surface. Possible cracked appearance
REASONS
- Incorrect assembly of the caliper or brake pads can cause differences in the angles of the brake pads to the disc, resulting in varying wear on each side Blue spots are caused by high local heating where frictional contact occurs.
EFFECTS
- Gradual vibration due to local heating. Possible reduction in braking efficiency
SOLUTION
- Check caliper and repair if necessary Replace the pads, checking that the type and shape are correct for the application.
