Brake Bedding Procedure?

[Mark D]

I recently replaced the brake pads at all 4 wheels and had the rotors resurfaced. Rotor thickness is well within the min specs, etc. Pads are the standard type from DMCH/DMCMW.

Is there any particular procedure I should follow to properly bed in the new brake pads?

I've always had good experience by going as gentle on them as possible, specifically getting a few high speed (50+ mph) gentle slowdowns all the way to full stop. Hopefully you don't encounter any poor drivers before you can get those in. But its not the end of the world if you do.

Cool, thanks for the advice. That's pretty much what I had learned reading on a few other websites as well. I wasn't sure if there was anything special about the brakes on our cars.... sounds like the bedding in process is standard regardless of make.
