[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 898968, member: 615"] One way to check for excessive pad drag would be to feel the temp of the discs. At your first cold start of the day take a short two or three mile loop around the neighborhood without using the front brakes. Stop and feel the temp of the front discs. If you don't detect any significant heating above ambient you'll know the pads aren't dragging all that much. But if you do detect significant heating you'll know the pads are dragging and wearing prematurely. [/QUOTE]
