[QUOTE="SkooterG, post: 325987, member: 118"] There is no way the ECU had anything to do with sticky brakes. It's a manual system for the most part, even with the ABS. Could have been something from the caliper goof from the one shop. As for normal wear and tear, Iggy, you gotta quit taking braking lessons from the 'Nut. 132,000 miles on my original rear pads, though they will be replaced soon. Like you, I got 65,000 miles on my second set of front pads. The first set went at about 30k due to the uneven wear. [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=12833&hl=The+good,+the+bad,,and,the+ugly"]CLICKY HERE[/URL] Prior to the IBR, I was going to do a total rebuild, but it was too pricey for new pistons/seals for both calipers, even from U Motors. So I just pulled out all the pistons and cleaned them and the calipers really well. So far, so good. [/QUOTE]
