guys, i need to get your opinions on this. i just had my rotors and pad replaced. i went for project mu slotted rotor and pad. anyway everything was dandy at the beginning, until at one point my brake started to produce this squealing noise. it used to happen randomly when i turn left or right while braking.but now it happens more and more often. FYI the squealing never occurs when im braking on a straight line. i am not even done yet with the breaking in and its already showing this problem.

your help and advice would really be appreciated. thanks in advance

 

u need to put some lubricant on the back of the pads.....u probably didnt put enough on there, used to happen to me a lot

 

thanks for the reply, but could you be a wee bit specific on the sorts of lubricants that i can put on the pads?

 

If your car is making the sound I think it is, then we both had the same problem..

Easy fix =-)

I cant remember what theyre called... The protective shields that sit behind your rotor are touching something... Just bend them towards the engine bay a little and that sound will go away.


Cheers!

 

okay i will try that. will update on this when im done. thanks guys

 

I have same problem

 

I just have the squealing problem... What kind of lube u talking about apevo? copper antisieze?

 

bump for more opinions

 

i forgot the name of it since its been a while but i got it from autozone, they sell it right by the register in a little package.....i tried all the other things including the CRC anti-sqeal thing, that didnt work

 

why do people with 2 dollar brake setups have less problems then people with great cars like the evo with very expensive brake systems....i just don't get it! argg

 

i believe that is one of the great mysteries of the universe lol

 

i've tried that and the problem persisted. brake still squeals like a wh*re
