Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

16 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I did my front brakes this past winter. I replaced pads and discs. I believe I used brembo parts. Car stops fine but let�s out this squeal sometimes when I hit the brakes. Is there anything I can do now to correct? I�ve put about 2k on them. New pads, new rotors, suggestions? I just tell people they are racing pads. 😀😀

POST 2Original post

Add anti-squeal to the back sides of them. I have a tub of the stuff that I've had for years. I use it on all brake jobs instead of the stuff that the part stores sell with pads. I bought it at Bavarian Autosport, but ECS bought them and they carry it now. One tub will last a long time, even if you do 10-12 brake jobs per year.

POST 4Original post

Did u replace the factory shims? They work well for quieting the brakes in some cars.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes, I put in dampers. I�ll try that paste during the winter.

POST 9Original post

If it�s not the dampers, and the anti-squeal paste doesn�t work, then it could just be the pads.

POST 10Original post

I have some anti-squeal but didn't use it when I did mine because of the dampeners. I suggest you just switch to the Akebonos and be done with it (hopefully).

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It�s the pads. I took out last night, put on anti squeal and same thing. Brembo pads. Ugh. oh well, now we know. Thanks all.

POST 12Original post

Curious. . . When your brakes did squeal did they start squealing after the brakes got warm? Did they ever do it when cold? Asking for a friend (me).

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I believe after driving a couple minutes. Under hard braking they are fine. For slow stops, they squeal at the very end, right before I stop. Car stops great otherwise.

POST 14Original post

Yep. Those pads are designed for higher heat conditions and may even perform better with spirited or track driving than a stock pads. Stock pads should not squeal, but they could wear faster on the track. Stock pads may also bite faster and slow a car down faster with less brake pedal pressure during a panic stop, whereas track pads need heat to grip most effectively. My advice is to pick 1 of these options: 1.) Replace the pads 2.) Always drive like a crazy person (spiritedly) 3.) Live with it

Sounds exactly like my Honda Type R(Brembo front calipers not sure what brand the stock pads are). Squeals like a banshee on the street. At AutoX I hear nothing. The brakes are fantastic just noisy when cold.

POST 16Original post

When i bought my car it had pagid yellows. Terrible squeal. Went to oem fronts and a set from autozone and now quiet. Certainly not as strong as the yellows but for dd i dont need track pads.
