Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper function, verify that your vehicle uses the ATE braking system before installation. As these pads are 17.5 mm thick, ensure your rotors are in good condition or replaced simultaneously for the best results.
- Preparation: Lift the vehicle safely and remove the front wheels.
- Removal: Remove the existing brake pads and clean the caliper housing of any debris.
- Installation: Install the Ferodo pads using the provided piston clips, ensuring they sit flush against the caliper.
- Bedding-in: After installation, perform a proper "bedding-in" process by completing a series of moderate stops from low speeds to transfer a thin layer of pad material onto the rotors.
- Maintenance: Because this unit lacks a wear sensor, manually inspect pad thickness every 5,000 to 7,000 miles to ensure safety.
