ThermalP4 1 Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Guys,Just had refurbed calipers fitted to the front and braided hoses all round on my 1997 VR.The pedal travel now is ridiculous.You have to push almost 70% down to get bight and when you slam on the anchors hard it almost goes to the floor and makes a clunk sound. Or what feels like a clunk.The brakes feel totally rubbish and hence i've lost confidence in them.Both discs and pads have less thn 1000 miles on them.Can anyone suggest what this can be? It is booked in to go back but thats next week.They also changed the fluid obviously.Any ideas?Thanks.Gav. Link to post Share on other sites

ThermalP4 1 Posted May 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Is that something that can be sorted DIY or best left to the garage?I would have thought they would have noticed that when they took it for test drive after completing the work. Link to post Share on other sites
ThermalP4 1 Posted May 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Just for the record I used VAGCOM and went through ABS bleed sequence.Seem to have sorted the pedal out by about 80%. Link to post Share on other sites
