DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Modifications to the rear brakes have been introduced on 110 and 130 models. This is to increase the service life
of the rear brake pads in harsh environments.

New rear brake calipers are introduced which allow the fitment of brake pads with a thicker friction material. The
brake pads have increased leading and trailing edge chamfers which improve efficiency.

Aerodynamic deflectors are located forward of the rear wheels to protect the rear calipers from the ingress of dirt,
which can cause excessive pad wear. The deflectors are manufactured from moulded rubber and are flexible to
prevent damage from impact. These deflectors are fitted to 90, 110 and 130 models in markets where
environmental conditions cause excessive brake pad wear.
