interesting. this intrigues me because when i bought the car (probably 2 months now) the person gave me the receipt for rear brake pads and rotors that was installed like 2 days prior to me buying. i'm unclear as to the test but i will try to drive with the e brake all the way up? or semi? it there an easy way to see if my brake pads are the wrong size? i'll search for installing brake pads and sizing.

thanks
