[QUOTE="SublimeRT, post: 13275548, member: 9879"] Press the brake pedal harder. :lol1: But no, seriously. A few different things I can think of off the top of my head; trash between the rotor and hub, sticking/damaged piston(s) in the caliper, loose caliper, trash between the caliper and mounting bracket, wrong pads for the car, incorrectly installed pads, I've even come across a kinked brake hose before from I guess where someone took off the caliper and unknowingly spun it around, pinching off most of the fluid flow. I would suggest you pull the wheels off and thoroughly inspect everything again. How does it drive? Pull to one side under braking? Any vibrations? Any noises or clunks? How many miles have you put on it since installing them? How did the wear patterns on the old rotors and pads look? Could tell a story. [/QUOTE]
