Inspection of Rotor: Adjustment
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Infiniti QX60. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Burnish contact surfaces between disc brake rotor and brake pads according to the following procedure after refinishing disc brake rotors, replacing disc brake rotors, replacing brake pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage:
CAUTION:
- Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake pedal does not operate firmly/securely until pads and disc brake rotor are securely seated.
- Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
- Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
- Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
- Drive without depressing brake pedal for a few minutes to cool the brakes.
- Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc brake rotor are securely seated.
