FAQs

What is the main benefit of EBC Greenstuff pads?

EBC Greenstuff pads offer a significant improvement in initial braking 'bite' and feel, providing drivers with more confidence from the first application, while also producing less dust than many performance sport pads.

Do I need to buy anything else besides this kit?

It is recommended to also have your brake fluid checked and potentially replaced when installing new brake components, and always ensure you have the necessary tools for installation.

How long does the bedding-in process take?

The bedding-in process is typically completed within a few miles of driving, following the specific EBC procedure. Full performance may continue to improve slightly over the first hundred miles.

Are these pads suitable for track use?

EBC Greenstuff pads are designed for general and fast road driving. For dedicated track use or extreme performance driving, EBC offers more aggressive pad compounds like Yellowstuff or Bluestuff.

How does the dust from Greenstuff pads compare to standard pads?

Greenstuff pads produce less dust than most original equipment (OE) sport pads and significantly less than many aftermarket performance pads. The dust produced is also typically easier to wash off.

Can I install these myself?

If you have experience with automotive brake maintenance and the correct tools, DIY installation is possible. However, it is always recommended to have brake work performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure safety and proper function.

What is the 'Brake-In' coating on the pads?

The revolutionary Brake-In coating is a surface treatment on the pads that helps to accelerate the crucial bedding-in process, ensuring the pads and discs mate effectively for optimal performance much sooner after installation.

Troubleshooting

Brake squeal or noise after installation

Ensure the pads were bedded-in correctly according to EBC instructions. Check that noise-reduction shims are properly installed. Uneven pad material transfer or worn suspension components can also cause noise.

Reduced braking performance

Verify the bedding-in procedure was completed successfully. Check for air in the brake lines, low brake fluid levels, or worn components. Ensure the correct parts were installed for your vehicle.

Excessive brake dust

While Greenstuff pads produce less dust than many sport pads, some dust is normal. Ensure wheels are cleaned regularly with a suitable cleaner. If dust is unusually high, re-check the bedding-in process and pad condition.

Brake pedal feels spongy

This typically indicates air in the hydraulic system. The brake lines may need bleeding. Also, check for leaks in the brake lines or calipers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Enhanced initial braking performance for improved confidence.
Reduced dust output compared to many performance pads.
Convenient all-in-one rear kit simplifies purchasing.
Cost savings by bundling discs and pads.
Designed for easy installation as an OE replacement.

Cons

May produce more dust than basic, low-friction pads.
Primarily suited for general and fast road use, not extreme track conditions.
Requires proper bedding-in procedure for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & Installation:

This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your vehicle's original rear brake components. It is crucial to ensure compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and year before purchase. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications for caliper bolts and wheel nuts.

Compatibility:

This specific kit (PD01KR293) is designed for particular vehicle applications. Verify your vehicle's compatibility using the EBC Brakes fitment guide or consult with a qualified mechanic. It is recommended to replace brake fluid when replacing brake components.

Care:

Bedding-In: Proper bedding-in is essential for Greenstuff pads. Follow the EBC Brakes instructions, which typically involve a series of moderate to firm stops from various speeds without coming to a complete halt, allowing for cooling periods in between. This process ensures the pad material transfers evenly to the disc surface, optimizing performance and preventing noise.
Cleaning: Use a mild, brake-specific cleaner and a soft brush or cloth for cleaning the discs and calipers. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage pad materials or seals. Brake dust from Greenstuff pads is generally easier to remove than from many other performance compounds.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the brake pads for wear and the discs for scoring or warping. Replace components as needed to maintain safety and performance.
