Thanks TT my trusted friend!

Just called the dealership and explained that they have 'taken the shine off my pads' and now the noise is back already!!
So I quoted the TSB and they are going to change the pads next Tuesday!!

Thank you

lol

Wonder if this is why when I looked at my pads at the front at around 19,000 that one of the fronts was worn away already.

Replaced it myself in the end, was suprised when I ordered then from my local parts dept. the box that arrived was listed as Mitsubishi parts ...

Ah well, only like £50 ...

Hello elliotwilson !! Are you UK based??? I think the TSB is basically for Squeel, Squeeks & Judder!! It doesnt mention wear!!

elliotwilson · May 6, 2009

Hey TipTronic

Yeh UK Based. Wiltshire area ... Bought my Pat from Kings Swindon.
I was getting squeeks/squeel every now and then ... but haven't noticed any since changing the pads ... was unusual wear for 19k miles ...

Not many Pat owners in my area, wherebout's are you?

I've not had any squeal or shudder from my brakes so far. If I do get it then I'll get it booked in, thanks for the heads up.

I go over to Swindon every now & then my Mrs likes shopping at the big TK Maxx shop on the Ring Road.

Ha ha the UK Pats are congregating!!:huddle: Is that allowed in this nanny state?

tiptronic · May 7, 2009

THe British Police will probably call it a Disordely Gathering , Put on their Roit Gear, draw their batons , then ask us very politely to Disperse under some sub-section of some Ancient law we have never heard about!!!
