[QUOTE="kennix, post: 4071959, member: 1849"] Hi there, Pls check your brake fluid too. I've been there and been spending a lot just to find it is the problem of the fluid. Stock AE101 using DOT3 fluid. DOT 3 fluid won't be able to withstand the heat or probably the boiling point is lower. I'm not good at this mechanical terms. Why I said the fluid is heated up. Imagine your brake pads having so frequent friction with your rotor. That will create heat. So the heat pass up to the brake hose and within brake hose, your brake fluid. Anyway, simple way to check. When you encounter this again, pop up the hood and check the brake fluid. I've gone thru expensive ways only to find out it's the fluid issue. Hope you don't have to go that way. I've even put in very good brake pad, can;t remember Project Miu or Endless and the same thing still happen like yours. Then bleed the old fluid, changed to DOT4. Done. Another issue also could be the rotor size or even thickness? I can't explain very well how this affect. Any sifu care to help??? Just my 2 cents. correct me if i'm wrong. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
