FAQs

How many brake pads are included in this set?

The set includes 4 brake pads, sufficient to service the front axle of your vehicle.

Are these pads compatible with my vehicle?

These pads are specifically designed for the ATE brake system. Please check your vehicle's service manual or consult with a mechanic to confirm if your vehicle utilizes an ATE setup.

What is the purpose of the acoustic wear warning contact?

It serves as a mechanical indicator that makes a noise when the brake pad material has worn down to a level where replacement is necessary.

Do I need special tools to install these?

Standard automotive tools for brake servicing are required, including a piston retractor tool and a torque wrench.

What does R90 homologated mean?

It means the brake pads have been tested and certified to meet the European ECE R90 standard, which mandates that the parts perform similarly to the original equipment supplied by the vehicle manufacturer.

Troubleshooting

Braking noise or squealing

Check that the acoustic wear clip is not already engaging; if pads are new, apply a thin layer of brake grease to the contact points of the pad backing plate.

Uneven brake pad wear

Ensure that the caliper slide pins are properly lubricated and not seized, as this often causes uneven pressure on the inner or outer pad.

Soft brake pedal feel

Bleed the brake system to remove any air trapped in the lines, and ensure the brake fluid is fresh and at the correct level.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality construction from a trusted brake manufacturer
  • Includes essential installation hardware like piston clips
  • Integrated acoustic wear warning system for maintenance tracking
  • Certified to R90 standards for safety and reliability
  • Balanced pad heights ensure even pressure distribution

Cons

  • Compatibility limited specifically to ATE brake systems
  • Requires professional installation to ensure safety compliance
  • Not intended for non-ATE braking configurations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting the installation, verify that your vehicle uses an ATE brake system, as the FDB1704 is not universal. The set consists of 4 pads designed for the front axle. When installing, ensure that the brake discs are clean and free of debris or surface rust to prevent premature wear. If your vehicle shows an acoustic warning signal, the pads should be inspected for thickness immediately. Always use a torque wrench to tighten caliper bolts to the manufacturer's specified values. Periodically check the condition of your brake lines and fluid levels to maintain total system integrity.
