Troubleshooting

Brake fade during heavy use

Ensure the correct EBC Brakes product is installed and has undergone the proper bedding-in procedure. Check for any potential leaks or system issues. Consider a higher-performance EBC Brakes compound if operating conditions are extreme.

Squealing or noise during braking

Verify proper installation and torque settings. Ensure brake hardware is clean and lubricated. Some high-performance pads may exhibit slight noise under certain conditions; ensure this is within acceptable operational parameters. Bedding-in might resolve initial noise.

Reduced stopping power after installation

Confirm the product is correctly installed and compatible with the vehicle. The bedding-in process must be completed for optimal performance. Check for air in the brake lines or low fluid levels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Before purchasing, verify that the EBC Brakes MPN: 17104555 is compatible with your specific vehicle's make, model, and year. Consult your vehicle's service manual or EBC Brakes' official compatibility charts. Installation typically requires removing the existing brake components and installing the new ones according to manufacturer specifications.

Setup: Installation is generally recommended to be performed by a qualified mechanic due to the critical nature of brake systems. Ensure all hardware is torqued to the correct specifications. Proper bedding-in procedures, as recommended by EBC Brakes, are crucial for achieving optimal performance and longevity.
