[QUOTE="Ghostrider-SG, post: 59098, member: 1035"] I think you kenna brake fade...your pads must have heated up and cause a glassy layer to form on the pads thru making your brakes super smooth and useless. When going down hill...do not rely on your brakes alone, use the engine to slow the speed down as well. You will not drive in 5th gear downhill rite ? So shift the drive out and select a lower gear. Thank goodness nothing happen. Try fitting slotted rotors...they help to deglaze those glassy layers. [/QUOTE]
