I have a Fg xr6 turbo ute with 55000 klm

I had to replace the rear brake pads today. They have worn unevenly.

The inner pads were both nearly metal on metal. The outside pads were barely worn.

Any ideas why this occurred? I have never seen this before.

The front brakes were ok.

check the sliders on the calipers they might be jammed if they both move freely then just see how the next set of pads go if there jammed u will need to unjam them so they move freely

Done, I'll see how they go.

One of the pistons (not sure if 'sliders' are the same thing) might have become stuck, pretty rare IMO but possible.. Also maybe get someone to check all the bolts etc are right..

My mates FG xr6t ute had the same issue.. sliders were not stuck either!

miy FG xr6T ute has the same problem only done 30000kms any ideas? could this be a warrenty issue?

You're not alone! My 07 bf ute has the same issue,nothing sticking but massive uneven wear on the rear pads,apparently it's common in thrse utes from au to fg ..

Common as... Ford know about it and Last I heard production changes Will be in effect from next month, not sure what theyve done yet but when I find out il post it... Better late then never hey

how come my other FG xr6T ute, a couple of years older doesnt have the same problem? (yes I know I have 2) anyway going back to th edealer on thursday to try and have the problem fixed under warrenty... I feel that I allready know the answer... another threat to ring fair trading...........
