Do yourself a favor now and change pads regularly. Am surprised at these get togethers how long some peoples' pads have been on the cars. And they wonder why brake dust gets all over the wheels. Susan O was worried about it this weekend so I showed her what my wheels looked like after 700 miles of continuous driving -- not a spec of black dust. Someone ahead or behind me was squealing loud enough to be heard through my non-functioning toll windows. And the pads just drop in like a Japanese make. Rediculous. Shauna said my car was sexy, not me. Apparently best I can hope for is a re-soiled seat... Bill Robertson #5939 >--- In DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxx> wrote: > 1.
