Rob Brodie Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 have you tried beding it in with water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob. Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Try and let it bed in for a while i bought a disc at the weekend and it still hasn't fully bedded in yet if this doesn't work , try new pads or something because you might have oil on them.Rob.
