Grug Member 1,318 Member For: 16y 8m 16d Posted 04/12/09 10:12 PM Share Posted 04/12/09 10:12 PM So what is actually wrong with them? I'm assuming its just the sh*tty type of pads they use? Would it be possible to annoy them enough with getting them fixed every time it happens for them to upgrade them for free? Lol.

Lol.Brakes will be covered! I killed my first set in about 10k kmsAnd they replaced them! Then I warped the rotors in the hills morning and they machined them! Then I really hammered them just out of south dandalup so its time for proper upgrade after christmas!But since its pretty common, they'll cover it but will try and get out of it!Kael got warranty for his diff bushes week before last and I think he had same issues with ford being twats!

The hotter and drier it gets... >_< Glad to hear I should be able to get them machined under warranty at least.Need slotted!

XF Falcon <put funny sh*t here> Member 3,365 Member For: 18y 5m 5d Gender: Male Location: Perth, NOR Posted 05/12/09 05:14 AM Share Posted 05/12/09 05:14 AM If u take the rotors off yourself (easy job) take them into repco they only charge like $40 to skim each disc, and they will do it while you wait.Otherwise do what I did, get some DBA 4000 slotted rotors and chuck them on the front. They seem to be a fair bit better, and I've only had them shudder a tiny bit around powercruise after 5 very hard laps around barbs. Once they cooled off they are back to 100% again Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/55848-waw-ver2/page/44/#findComment-960484 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to be saving right now too :/Good to hear they worked fine after cooling off!
