Hyper sensitive Brakes

Anyone else notice this symptom:
Or is it me getting accostomed to these brakes?
Instead of a nice smooth slowing and stop with increase in pedal pressure, the brakes, with slight pressure "snap"(grab), and then the pedal pressure increase seems normal and appropriate to brake control

Re: Hyper sensitive Brakes

this is common.. especially if you've just gotten the G.. this has been asked many time, but i'll answer for everyone.. yes, the brakes are pretty touchy, but you'll grow accustomed to it.. they're jus realli good breaks..

Re: Hyper sensitive Brakes

It seems that this only applies to non-Brembo cars.

Re: Hyper sensitive Brakes

There's a simply solution. Replace the stock front pads with EBC Greenstuff (kevlar) pads. Get as good or better braking, without the grabbiness and no black dust. It took me 250 miles to decide to get rid of the OEM pads.
