Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these pads on the rear axle?

No, these pads are specifically engineered for the front axle of vehicles equipped with the AKEBONO system.

What is the primary function of the acoustic wear warning?

It emits an audible sound when the pad material is low, warning the driver to replace the brakes before damage occurs to the rotors.

Do I need special tools to install these?

Standard automotive tools like a lug wrench, socket set, and a C-clamp or brake piston spreader are typically required.

Are these pads compatible with all brake systems?

No, they are specifically designed for compatibility with the AKEBONO braking system.

What does ECE-R90 certification mean?

It is a safety standard that certifies the brake parts meet or exceed the performance levels of the original equipment.

Troubleshooting

Brake squealing immediately after installation

Ensure that the backing plates were properly lubricated with brake grease and that the pads were bedded in correctly.

Audible high-pitched screeching during braking

This is likely the acoustic wear sensor indicating the pads are near the end of their life. Inspect the pad thickness immediately.
