I didnt use the vibration dampers, and because I used Hawk HPS, I tied back the sensors.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

- Pad change itself is possibly even easier than an oil change - When did the putty knife become a main tool in the chest? - Newfound respect for pit crew wheel changers. Mine are only 10", but fully inflated are something else to toss around. - Nothing quite has the same ring as saying: I busted the rubber (gloves), while jacking the car, and I still have to bed the pads. I didnt use the vibration dampers, and because I used Hawk HPS, I tied back the sensors. No squeels from anywhere, *yet*. The way the vibration dampers fit into the pistons, they seem like an integral part of the setup. Is it really ok (mechanically) to be without them? Also, the pin/spring kit seems relatively unbreakable, why bother replacing it? How do I know the pads have been well-bedded? I've noticed that my driving style for everyday uses little braking. -- befast

POST 2Original post

just drive normally; no need to bed these like race pads. the surfaces will mate naturally over a couple hundred miles. you're fine without the vibration shims; i promise. i never saw the need to replace the pins either. if the pads actually slid on the pins, i'd feel differently, but they really don't contact one another. i re-use mine.
