Uneven pad wear - 288mm brakes

Recommended Posts

Hi there, I seem to have uneven pad wear on the 288mm front brakes. The pad is wearing faster on the inner disc near the hub than the outer disc. Any ideas what might be causing it? I think the calipers are the ATE ones off a late mk3 golf gti. Discs and pads are pagid.

Pads jammed in the carriers?

 

Slides moving freely?

 

Are the brakes getting hot due to the calliper holding on after the pedal is released?

I'd hazard a guess and say your sliders are seizing. Just need taking out, cleaning and greasing up. Either that or take caliper off and wind piston right in to make sure it's nice and free
