dellert 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Did you put the little clips back in on the pads? Also they need to bed in after fitting, probably just wearing in. Link to post Share on other sites
nogama3 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 clips back on, driving easy and brakng easy - i thought that but the noise is loud and comes and goes. sounds more like metal rubbing something. Link to post Share on other sites
snares123 0 Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 you need to put pad squeel on the back of the pad where the piston hits and where the pad runs on the caliper,only use a lil tho otherwise you will fuck the pads and disks. this works like a hi temp lube and stops squeeling. dont forget maintenance of where the pad sits is essential it needs to be clean so the pad can run smooth.

nogama3 0 Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 it was the metal plate at the back that made the noise - all sorted now - thanks for the help. Link to post Share on other sites
