Brake Calculations

[baz-r]

ash hows your brakes? sorted yet heres a few of my ideas

whats the deal with your pads etc if you have new pads on old disc you will get more travel at your pedel even with new pads on new discs
get them bedded in if you can

ajust up the rear drums as much as possible (are the shoes new)

check your discs and drums are running tru (use a dti)
i have had this loads of times on new brakes

all your calipers sliders free if your on single pots or all your pistons free on multi pots
or just not aligned corectly?

if its all bled ok (must be by now) you should start looking at lost movement

not sure with the iva but the mot rule of thumb was if the brake efficency was in well berfore the end of travel stop it was fine the old fiesta's where bad for this as thay put the master cyl on the other side with a link rod and it would twist under the strain
