Bedding In Brake Pads And Brake Discs
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
New brake pads need a bedding-in time of approx. 200 km (125 miles). Only then do brake pads achieve their best friction coefficient and wear values.
- During this time, only press the brake fully at high speed in emergencies.
- The slightly reduced braking effect must be compensated for by increased pressure on the brake pedal.
- The same also applies after changing brake discs.
