symsy Posted 5November, 2016 Report Share Posted 5November, 2016 I thought I had asked this before about brakesThis weekend after returning from my Euro trip took the TT out for a run after its 2 months lock down and went around for a little personal safety check , had it up on the hoist etc etcFound a tiny oil leak and also went through the brakes and checked all the inspection panels etc geabox etc etcI noticed my front brake rotors and have a 1-2mm lip on the fronts and cant remember the last time I changed them or even what the tollerances are, anyone know?I will also need some pads soon.. yeah I know they have wear indicators .. just like to get to my stuff in advance.So my question has anyone played with any non standard brake rotors and pads on a 993 TT.I have read a lot on Giro Disc floating discs.. anyone tried em..Would you deviate .. is there a good place to source for a self fit? I have no real issues with them and can just go down the standard path…I think I just got all my Brembo gear last time direct and had them fitted locally as it was pain to go 1/2 day jaunt to the porsche dealer.Car is just for road .. although does see some digits with a 2 at the beginning now and then (Bad I know)For some reason also the heater that was on on hot seems to have jammed open .. not so good today with a 34 degree day.. , I can here something actuating but have no idea where the flap mechanism may be in the bay.. couldnt see anything underside.. It s probably under that damn intercooler.. thought it might just need a bit of lubrictaion, any pointers..Doesnt seem like its the servos in the front footwells, I wasnt sure if there was a rear flap?
