James, if you haven't been braking much in 400 miles, then you wouldn't expect to see many changes. For you that might be more like 1,000 or 1,500 miles.

That said, if you're due for a flush I'd do that anyway as Larry has suggested.

Good luck.
I think you're right and that I wont see anything REALLY improve until I hit more miles as I'm not braking much.
