n0v8or,
It kind of feels like there is an iflated balloon between the pedal and the floor, I also pushed the caliper in with a C clamp as I've done many other times with other vehicles. I did not remove the caliper or the rotor and the old pads had a little over an eighth of an inch left. I thought I was being pretty preventative, but this has got me just a little concerned. It is my wifes car and I don't feel comfortable with her driving it now. A friend of mine says that the new pads need to be broken in and it will take about fifty miles for the chemicals and stuff they treat them with to break in, he doesn't think it's a problem, but just needs to be driven for a little while. Again, when I get in it for the first time and pump the brakes, they pump up real tight like usual and then I drive for a few miles and have to pump them up again so to speak! I truly appreciate ALL the advice here!
