MTEC drilled disc noise!

[jacobrownoly]

Hi guys,

Just after some advice.

I have the S3 front break set up on my mk5 gti. I have OME S3 pads and drilled + grooved MTEC discs. I have had them on for over a year with no issues at all but recently they have started to groan a lot louder that I can remember them doing. I know drilled discs are a little louder but as said recently its been getting more annoying. Its like a deep/drone groan.

Anyway, I was thinking it would be the pads but when I got it on the ramp and had a closer look the pads seemed fine with more than enough life in them. The discs look fine too. 

Anyone shed some light on this? 

Many thanks

Hi jack it's Probably pad pick up.
How hard do you use them?
Get up to speed and Do some hard braking allowing to cool for 1/2 a mile then repeat for a few times normally sorts out groaning issues.
