    Hi gurus, I'm just wondering if normal ba sa brakepads na hindi pa din fully nakalapat sa discs after 2 months, more or less 1600kms na ang tinakbo? Just had it replaced last November and hanggang ngayon, yung right rear outer disc ko may kalawang pa din. Tapos occasionally may whistling sound sa likod kapag nagppreno. I know that replaced pads take time to fully engage the discs, pero ngayon ko lang naexperience na 2 months na hindi padin. Also, I jacked the rear part and tried to spin that same tire, may resistance xa compared to the rear left one. Should I have this checked already? Thanks in advance!

    Might be a stuck caliper. Have it checked.

    There's a procedure in brake bedding, google it.

    I'd re-face the rotors if there is considerable score, u could actually tell by wiping your fingernails across the rotors. If its too rough that your nails get caught not sliding freely then you should reface. After refacing, follow the bedding procedure.

    The problem here is where to do that brake bedding.

    It could be a stuck piston, just remove the pads and brake piston, if possible buy a piston seal kit or new piston if the current one is damaged or has rust.

    Happened to me before.
