Caleb shows you how to properly bed in your brakes after installing new pads and rotors.
Bedding in your brakes helps transfer an even layer of brake pad material onto the brake rotor which assists in smoother brake operation and improved braking power. It is important to do this to maximize the life of your new pads.

Thank you.. i did my first change of my front brake pads today... you came up in my google question... and did not disappoint...

@savagepickle0443 Год назад

The requirements for mine were 15 sets of 50 mph down to 10-15 mph, I was a bit scared after the pads had gotten hot and squishy but after I let them cool they work almost too good 😂

@alexzbarazky3038 Год назад

Just did the same on a work/camper sprinter van. I did have the owner secure things before that 😄

Pro tip: Look in your rearview mirror before standing on the brakes....

I remember years ago a salesman from Hendrick BMW was demonstrating the breaking capabilities of an M5 on a busy four-lane highway 🛣️ m front of the dealership. He failed to look in the rearview mirror and got rear ended in the process. I would assume that salesman lost his job that day.

I do like the sound of the car

Thats a fake noise from soundactor, no way near the real sound of the engine.

@lifeisgood070 2 года назад

I think different pads require more or less bedding. When I bought track pads they needed five more stops from 45 to 5. It was wild. Once they bedded in the power and modulation was ridiculous. It’s like the pad completely changed from a standard ceramic pad to a crazy aggressive semi metallic / carbon

Nice car to bed brakes in. Nice car to do anything in 😂

@lucaschurchill7645 3 года назад

Perfect to the point Vid... love it. Curious though, is it the exhaust causing that hard vibration at low RPM's when you accelerate?

@clubpageqwe 3 года назад

The car is stage 2 with stage 3 DSG and all mounts are either solid or poly so there’s some pretty intense NVH at low RPMS.

@qx4n9e1xp Год назад

Thanks for the video! I just bought FRONT hawk hps pads from ECS but the rears from ebay because I only got free shipping for the fronts for some reason. Adding the rears brought up $56 shipping. That's insane! I'm guessing the weight was too heavy, but ECS should definitely look into that.

@johnoko132 2 года назад

Thanks! This was very helpful! Do you know if Hawk recommends different bedding procedures for different levels of performance pads? Was this video just for street pads?

Caleb, at first glance I thought you were driving a Charger, but my wife being the cool attentive type that she is, noticed quickly you are driving what we both agree is the sexiest VW we ever seen, but have no clue what model you own. Could you help us out on this? Damn nice car from what we can see. Thanks In Advance. Todd and Ronda K.

@S_Paoli Год назад

do these suggestions apply to breaking in new brakes on a brand new BMW as well? Thanks!

Any car. Not vehicle specific. More so brake pad/rotor specific.

@Thetexaschainsaw Год назад

With akebono pads you can skip this step as they dont require no bed in

@LordTheodore04 3 года назад

nice

@Vonbrow Год назад

What does “bedding in” do

@ali3lia Год назад

Transfers an even layer of pad material to the rotor surface. Better braking performance vs if there wasn’t any. It happens anyway when you have driven around enough on new brakes but it’s better to do it this way so you don’t find yourself sitting on the brake pedal if the brakes are hot.

@b18tuner5875 Год назад

This is clickbait since modern ceramic brakes don't need to be bedded in. This is for older organic compound brakes. Sounds like you don't have any engineers at your company, this is an incredibly uneducated take that could only be thought of by uneducated workers.

@RKCorinth 4 месяца назад

Some people might still use the original compound. This video is highly informative. Why even watch the video?

@b18tuner5875 4 месяца назад

@RKCorinth why get offended by the fact a random youtuber is wrong? Jesus Christ get a hobby. You sound really stupid if being told SOMEONE ELSE is wrong offends you.

@b18tuner5875 4 месяца назад

@RKCorinth Organic brakes have been phased out years ago because of their cancer causing compounds. New cars are specified for ceramics. If you're putting organics on your cars that's fine, you sound like someone who would voluntarily huff cancer.

@RKCorinth 4 месяца назад

They have not been phased out. It may be more of a commonality now to see newer vehicles that come pre-equipped with ceramic pads from the manufacturer; yes, however there are still plenty of new vehicles that come standard with semi-metallic/organic compound pads. Some people just prefer them. Both have their pros and cons. It really comes down to personal preference.

@seanb9698 3 месяца назад

@@b18tuner5875 They still make organic compound pads. They started restricting how much asbestos and other metals manufacturers can use in them starting in 2010 but they are not phased out as you mentioned. Do more research before slandering the employees of this company.
