mine have been peeling for 12,000 miles (since 5000 on my 03) and when i went to the dealership and they shot me down hardcore. nope. i tryed fighting it and they told me that break fluid did it. soooooo there is no replaceing them for me unless u can find a written document. not to mention the guy was a dcikhead.

 

Mxjs... thanks for the info anyway. I had called the dealer myself and spoke to the service manager about my Pink brembo's. He did take my number and told me when the regional rep comes around (which is once a month) he would give me a call so I could bring the car down. Now I have this, which I pray is true I can tell him about this. I always felt that this should have been replaced under warranty instead of putting armor all every time I washed the car. I made several calls to brembo and they told me that the system belongs to MMC, the deal was made with brembo in Italy and there was nothing they could do about it. AGAIN thanks for the info, too bad I dont live close by you....or I would bring my car into that stealership.

 

I didn't read the entire thread but I came across this and thought I'd post it. Not sure if it helps though:

12 of 12: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTSISC:CALIPER

Bulletin Date: DEC 2004
CLEANING BREMBO BRAKE CALIPERS. MITSUBISHI TECH TALK. ( NHTSA ITEM NUMBER - 10018365 )

 

what exactly is this?

 

It's a TSB that's listed for the Evolution. There are currently 12 TSBs out, and that's #12.

 

Thats hottness. Also does your car need to still be under the 15,000 mile warrenty for thr brakes or no?

 

Doubt it. I think TSBs are good for the full length of the car's warranty - I may be wrong.

Excellent link, thanks Papito!

 

I dont understand the link... it says 2005 lancer evolution.

 

A TSB does not imply warranty coverage. It is simply an update on the parts and/or repair procedure. It has nothing to do with warranty coverage.

 

Ok.

 

From what my dealer told me they can even deny that, the dreaded REP.

 

Im sorry for being ignorant, but does this cover the evo ix's as well as the xiii's?

 

Should, but I thought they fixed the problems by '05 though
