ok i changed my front disc pads last saturday... and on the following saturday i notice this
the pads are not fully covering the surface. What could be the problem?

the pad no. used is 5070 which is for eg9 or ek4 where as 5073 is for eg8
so here i am lost as to what going on...

your rotors have probably worn unevenly so the pad will have to wear in before it has complete contact

is it is the 'silver' brand disc pads? If it is, the pad is smaller than the original. I know this cause i had my rotors machined and it was only until i matched the old pads with the new ones i realised the difference in physical size.
