had my front brake pads replaced back in november along with two new front disks as they were scored.
was on the dual carridgeway yesterday going round a corner to find a hyundai getz traveling at 60mph in the outside lane! i had to brake quite hard in order to match his speed as i was traveling about 80mph. when braking i heard a grinding noise as if the discs were being scored...
can brake pads wear out this fast? the brake pad indicator on the dashboard is not lit up so they shouldnt be worn out surely?
am i worrying about nothing or is it worth removing the wheels to check the discs for scoring and the pads for wear? if so what am i looking for? could the rear drums have worn out too?
