I am giving him one last chance, although, I should just delete his account, as he had his location as "UM", which is US Minor outlying islands, when infact he is in Nigeria as I found by running his IP.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys I was wondering if anyone could please help me out with a question regarding traction control on my 99' C2. During track days, I notice that my rear brake pads wear out almost twice as fast as the front pads. I'm assuming this is TC kicking in, but I have no TC button. From what I've read, if there is no button the car is not equipped with TC...so how could this be happening? If it is TC, how would I deactivate it? Thanks, -Danny

POST 3Original post

You wil only have a TC button on the dash if you have a LSD. As far as I know there is no TC on early 996 without an LSD. My first inclination is to say there is an issue brake balance problem directing too much brake bias to the rear brakes. I run my car at the track and my front pads wear much faster than the rear.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for your input bornrich. I've tracked many times before with different cars and the front pads always wore twice as fast as the rears. I've had the brakes checked out and the shop can't find anything. Any other input from yourself or any other of the forum members would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, -Danny
