Hi Guys
Quick question:
Any thoughts what may be causing me to have a half inch band round the outer edge of my front off-side brake disc?
I have noticed that there is a rusty band which doesn't clear no matter how much braking I do. I Cleaned off the disc and took out the pads and cleaned them and copper-slipped them back into the caliper but the band is re-appearing.
Clearly the pad on the outer face isn't pressing against that part of the disc but I can not see why, the pad surface is flat and clean and the car stops ok.
Any thoughts what else I should check / change? Could it be that I need to flush through the brake fluid? All 4 pots seem to move ok so not likely to be a sticky caliper.
Thanks!
David
