BMW M3
I am no mechanic, nor do i go on track days etc... so i was wondering whether anyone here could help. The other day i was making the best use of some of Scotlands finest countryside roads and was driving my 182 quite entusiastically for about 45 mins on very twisty roads. However, after turning a corner at a substancial speed, i was faced with a flock of sheep in the middle of the road. So naturally i braked very hard in order to avoid them only to find the car not really wanting to do the same. Luckly, i stopped with 2 inches to spare (seriously), but was left wondering why the car did not perform as expected. There was no sign of any traction control stepping in nor did it lock up. Just slow braking....
Is this whats called "Brake Fade" ? anyone?.... thanks
