    mga sir, nagiba behavior ng brake ko, newly replaced yung break pad ko napansin ko sumasagad na apak ko bago mag preno... and then drive pa ko ng drive hangan sa lumusot na yung preno... syet, buti na lang malapit na ko sa bahay alalay na lang ako sabay handbrake.. anyway my car is esi... earlier bleed namin ng father ko parang may hangin pa din... na dranan din pala ako ng brake fluid so.. nilagyan ko ng bago..

    question..
    naadjust ba yung brake pad?
    what could be the cause, why lumulusot na preno ko??

    Chief,

    Most likely you still have air in your brake system. Theoretically, air can be compressed that is why you still can floor your pedal. You need to bleed and make sure all four sides of your wheels (or should I say, four brake sides) are checked. Be careful also that proper fluid level is maintained while bleeding or purging, typical draining would cause air to go inside your system (which will make your bleeding useless).

    Thanks

    bleed brakes tapos ayusin mo ung wheel cylinder mo sa likod malamang may stuck up na piston.

    baka nagkaroon ng crack ang rubber brake lines mo ng pinalitan ang brake pads, o kaya ay hindi nahigpitan ang bleeder at tumutulo duon ang brake fluid. check mo kung naubusan ka ng brake fluid.

    your front brakes are probably stuck na. have them inspected before doing anything.

    Persistent air in the system even after bleeding all four calipers and cylinders may indicate that air is still inside the master cylinder and have to be bled further. If not, the master should be replaced.
    This is remote but possible, it had happened in the shop. If the front calipers are interchangeable, meaning that the left can be inadvertently installed to the other side and vice versa with no apparent trouble, the system can not be bled properly no matter what because the bleeder screw is positioned at the top of the caliper instead of at the bottom where it should be if they where installed properly.

    ???? parang may mali yata sir, di ba dapat talaga nasa higher side ng caliper housing ang bleeder screw? go figure

    Typo.. hehe nabaligtad lang sa utak. pero its the thought that counts! hehe I think it was from a Nissan Pick-up ata from my previous shop. The mechanic washed both calipers, got mixed up and yun na, no more air when bleeding but the brakes are weak and the pedal is low. Yun pala, the remaining air inside was at the top of the caliper and the screw was at the bottom. Di nga naman lalabas ang hangin!
    Thanks for the correction sir!

replaced new brake pad then nawalan ng preno help!
