If the temperature is lower than approxi-
mately 158°F (70°C), drive the vehicle until
it reaches normal operating temperature.
If the temperature is higher than 230°F
(110°C), perform cool-down driving proce-
dure. (
engine for more than 20 seconds
without depressing the brake pedal.
This allows the brake pads to move
away from the rotor so the pad does
not contact the rotor.
Additionally, the brakes must be dry
before parking the vehicle after driv-
ing on wet roads or after washing the
vehicle. If the roads are wet, lightly
apply the brakes for a short distance
before parking the vehicle to dry the
brakes. After washing the vehicle, dry
the brakes by driving on a dry road for
a few miles and apply the brakes
normally based on traffic and road
conditions.
The metallic brake pads and brake
disc rotor may rust together when the
brakes are not applied:
— If the vehicle is not idled for 20seconds without the brakes ap-
plied, or if the brakes are applied
when the vehicle is shut off, the
rotor and pads can rust together,
even when the brake pads are dry.
— If the brakes are wet when the vehicle is parked and the parking
brake is applied for a long time.
— The hill start assist system can apply the brakes even if the brake
pedal is not depressed. The brake
pads and rotors can rust together if the parking procedure previously
described is not followed.
It is recommended you contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer if the brake
pads and brake rotor have rusted
together.
