CHANGED BRAKE PADS AND HAVING TROUBLE STOPPING, LOTS OF TRAVEL IN PEDAL

posted by  someone claiming to be STEPHANE on  Tue Jul 2 08:50 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I RECENTLY CHANGED THE PADS ON MY 2000 S80 AND HAVE EXCESSIVE TRAVEL ON THE BERAKE PEDAL REQUIRED TO STOP. CALLING THE MINTEK DISTRIBUTER (IPD) AND ASKING THE QUESTION WAS UNSUCCESSFUL.
AT FIRST THE THOUGHT OF AIR IN THE LINE CROSSED MY MIND, BUT COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT OPENING THE LINES. ALSO THOUGHT MAYBE THE PADS WERE RESTING ON THE OUTER RIDGE OF THE ROTORS, I WAS INFORMED BY IPD THAT THE MINTEK PADS ARE CORRECT FITTING AND WON'T DO THIS.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS????
