Ive just bought a pair of RDA slotted rotors and they were supplied with a set of RDA pads?. An ex brake specialist mechanic was telling me that you need to make sure the slides move freely on the calipers otherwise it may seize and you only get effective braking on one side of the rotor. He reckons to clean them with kero then use malignum disulphide grease to lubricate them. I've had a braking issue with the wagon since I bought it and he reckons this may well be the problem. When I apply the brakes they have to be pumped up almost every time before they work properly. (the brakes have been bled through many times with no difference). I'll know soon enough when I get the slotted rotors on.
