Pretty much as per title...

Textar/pagid pads, and OEM discs on my standard 997.

Once they get really hot there's quite a drone emanating....is it just the fresh surfaces not bedded in yet and it will get smoother?

Should I have let them bed in a bit longer before going for it?

Thanks for any advice

thanks cmoose...I had a rough idea that was good for the bedding in

I was really punishing them in that way i guess, which confused me. Although I was slowing from "fast" to about 40. I'll try slowing to an even slower speed, and from cold

Cheers

Half a dozen hard stops from fast to almost standstill then keep driving for a while to cool them down.
