before you go and replace the proportioning valve just have him check out up slidepins, it will only take 20 min and could save you alot of time/money. ive seen tons of cars come into my shop with dry slidepins and on set of pads wearing alot faster due to it. some mechanics are in a rush or too lazy to grease the slidepins.

Will do. Thanks for the Info.

You all are to Fukin funny. Just because he?s Spanish, he?s a bad mechanic...lol I?ve known this guy for years, he actually sold me this car 4 years ago. Trust me he has no reason to be ripping me off. Always does a great job. He may have been wrong.

we didnt say he's wrong because he spanish... we said he's wrong because its impossible that the prop valve in his car is causing brake imbalance issues in the rear.

Nothing to do with him as a hispanic he's just dead wrong on that one. Like I said I would get a second opinion or tell him to try the slide pins

If you have known him for a while, he speaks decent english and you clearly understand him, that is what counts for me. It seems he is used to the proportioning valve and its function with a FWD car. Many of them are set up with the LF & RR tied together & vice versa.

so are you saying he may be right? or that he's confused?

I belive GDTrumbo is saying that he's might be looking at it the way you would with a FWD car as opposed to the way you do with our cars.
