[QUOTE=blkaudi98;7530660]i bought a fairly expensive order from JHM, installed everything and i am having problems with the new parts

I guess “expensive order” is a relative term.
[QUOTE=blkaudi98;7530667]Front and rear rotors, hawk pads, oil change kit, brake fluid.
[/quote]
446$ + taxes give or take for the OEM brake disc and hawk pads and brake oil
80$ for the oil change kit
I doubt he was having problems with the oil change kit.
As for the rest of the “expensive” order, If i remember to replace the brakes on 4 corners its in or around 1200$ (CAD)
As for his problems
My money is on improper bedding. Hope we get to hear what finally went wrong.
Not improper bleeding. It wouldn’t move over to the other side.
I’m betting he is having issues bedding them in. I think the JHM rotors arhat der than stock or something, because it takes a lot of work to get the completely bed in.
My money says a few more hard 70-5 stops fixes his issue
OEM IS OEM … That being said people get a bit confused between the terms OEM and OEM fitment and how to differentiate between the 2.
In case you forgot OEM means Originial Equipment Manufacturer.
Do JHM “OEM” rotors come from an actual dealership or the company that makes the rotors for audi? If yes they are OEM
If not they are “OEM FITMENT” meaning they are made according to OEM specs, but are not actually OEM.
OEM fitment disc’s might be made to the exact same size, but not the same materials or compound. These possible “OEM fitments” might be harder to bed in then normal disc’s.
looks like the quattrofailers got together and planned a little anti jhm/pro AMD mini assault on audizine lol. Smoothe guys…nobody can tell your motives!
The old school b5 guys could talk some legitimate smack. These new guys like sexican are just tired and come up with nothing…probably doesn’t even know the third gear story.
Haha I’ve been around for probably longer than most (running on 10 years now in the Audi scene).
Can’t really race in the rain. Tracks are closed. Just waiting on a nice day here. WA sucks, everything is always green and rains all the time. Even when the weather forecast says SUN, just means “chance of snow”. I think this I the only state that can see 4 seasons during any of the 4 seasons.
