Does anyone else find the brake pedal's lack of "firmness" a little unpleasant? I have noticed it more increasingly after 6000kms of ownership.
Don't get me wrong, the brakes work 100%, and stops well when needed. It's just that upon initial contact to about 30% of the pedal pressed in, it feels very soft and spongy. Only when pressed 50% or more does the brake give a responsive stop. I had the service dept check my brake fluid / calipers and pads etc everything was fine and new.
While it may not be a fair comparison, but my 11 year old RX8 with 40,000kms has much firmer / responsive brake pedals. Yes, i suppose the calipers are probably 1 piston more but still, this is probably the only one major disappointment with this otherwise splendid vehicle.
