Braking distance

[Red_Bean_Bun]

Been noticing lately that the braking distance is getting shorter. From 70 to 0 km/h using 2 of the road direction arrows before the stop line as a gauge, the car would overshoot the stop line with a screech.

No changes to the rims, brakes, tyres & pads etc. Tyres are about 6 months old, pads about 70% left.

Any ideas ?

Longer braking distance is right ........... Longer than usual.

You in a bad mood ?

Re: Braking distance

How old is the brake fluid? Maybe because it has been raining recently?
