Heat buildup can cause alot of problems.

* Do you still have the big metal splash guards on? They get hot and hold the heat in your rotors & calipers. like little brake ovens (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif)
Take them off if you haven't already.

* Brake coolers? These kits to route air into the center of the vented rotor help alot.



* I use ATE Blue and have no problems but change out annually. I've heard MOTUL is good but have no experience with it.

Did you bleed the proportioning valve too? That little gem can give you all sorts of grief if it still has air in it.

Pads. with all of the above, I still had fade with 'good pads' until I switched to Pagid Orange....


Let us know what you find and what fixes your problems...

I had some brake issues recently and it ended up being a frozen piston in one of the front calipers. Was real exciting first high speed lap on practice day!!

yes splash guards on but not for long good idea..I did use the blue but just changed to the MOTUL heard it was better?? Pagid orange will be ordered tonite for sure.Do they squeel? , .how can i tell the proportion valve thing if its not bled proper..will the vent kit work with a stock front valance?..Thanks

I'd probably start chasing the problem in this order.

1. Take off the splash guards.

2. Bleed brakes again. I agree with the post above, you may need to bleed several times if there is any residual moisture, etc.

3. Bleed the proportioning valve. Search here for threads. I use a Motive brake bleeder and tap the proportioning valve lightly to dislodge any bubbles while bleeding the back calipers. Do a search though, I'm sure there are better methods : )

Then try the brakes again. I wouldn't change out the pads or add the coolers right away. See if the above makes an improvement first.

Also, if the brakes work if you keep pumping them. And if the pedal slowly goes down if you apply constant pressure while sitting still, you may have a master cylinder going bad. If you change that out, upgrade to the 19mm unit.
