you can feel how the brakes are working so for the first miles build up your confidence
DO NOT FLY INTO THE FIRST CORNER AND HOPE THE BRAKES ARE OK
Pretty basic stuff realy
Bit of common sense needed don't you think

But I had new brakes once and this happened

Is this a poem?

Really great contribution Andy

At least there were relevant information and questions there, that is what was completely missing from your previous post!

Good point, and well put.

It must be true, the internet said it.

I too had a crash once & have changed my brakes once, so it must have been the cause.

Here is a picture.

The moral of the story has to be never, ever, change you're brakes.

I think I did change them on one of my cars, I'm going to send it to auction to be on the safe side

with oem brakes just drive normally
the most important thing is dont keep the brakes on at traffic lights, this might cause heat soak into the disc and cause brake judder

Only if you just braked hard from 100mph to stop at the lights. Under normal driving it won't make any difference.

"A Ferrari isn't a normal car." The brakes work using the same principle as those on a Fiat Panda. If the nut on the steering is faulty on either car it can result in an accident.

Almost as big a bump as that Ferrari had.

Top lurking and an epic bump, all in one post
