Rear brakes looking bad

[ripp]

My rear brakes (discs especially) look quite bad, any ideas? pads still have plenty material in them, discs still have the required thickness

 

[Coops Mk1]

looks like caliper has been binding and overheating the disc

have you checked the slide pins are operating smoothly?

 

[ripp]

will check them but when I had the pads changed it all looked good

+1 for binding calipers.

 

[da rok]

nah those look mint man

 

[Knuckles]

+2

Do you leave your handbrake on overnight?

I know it's a different car but mine sticks on overnight and binds the brakes to the disc so i just don't use it any more

 

[ripp]

yeah I do but over 10 years of doing so with this car and it never looked like this

Just went today and took both real caliper sliders apart, the right side was stuck, cleaned the sliders on both left and right calipers and applied TRW grease. Cleaned the pads and discs after, hope this will sort it
