Dyl 4 Report post Posted June 25, 2012 Situation: In the not to distant future I'll be taking the M3 around the track for a squirt. My brake pads are very old I suspect but have plenty of meat left. Q: Will their age decrease their effectiveness eg heat resistance or will they be OK? Common sense tells me the answer but I'm still curious... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

my_e36 43 Report post Posted June 25, 2012 Bring some tools and a spare set of pads just in case you cooked them on the track. That will at least get you home. +1 on the fluid flush. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
