Hello
Today I changed the front pads on my 1999 9-3 base. I followed my haynes manual and the FAQ directions on TheSaabSite. Went for a test drive and the brake pedal is mushy. My pedal was firm before I did the pads ( they were pretty well worn). Any input or advice. I did not think I needed to bleed the brake system if I only did pads? Could it be the new pads need to be broken in? The front rotors were hot after the test run So i know that the front barkes are engaging. Any suggestions or input are appreicated! TIA!
