Tomorrow dealer is installing new brake pads. Brembo on the front. If I recall correctly there was a good way to break these in at first?? Anything I should be aware of with this install?
Thanks,
jim

Should mention pads are going all around, front and rear.

Here's some brake homework from the folks who make skrillions of brake parts. Straight from the horse's mouth - no hearsay or rumor.

The first link can't be reached anymore & the second seems to be EBC's website! I contemplated the dealership option as well, for my 2015 XTS Platinum but reconsidered after the astronomical quote they gave me & went with Brembo Premium NAO Ceramic OE Equivalent pads instead for the front & rear & did it myself! It's a Brembo brake system anyways & much cheaper! Anyways I was wondering if you found the proper break-in procedure for the new brake pads now that I have installed them? BTW, I ordered both sets & hardware online from Parts Geek. Thanks
