So I take the car to Wrightune today and although the OPC (Bolton) had replaced the pads all round (and new disks on the rear) they didn't put the anti squeal shims (Porsche call them someting else, I can't remember what) in there?!

Having just had the pleasure of using Wrightune I would say that you could do a lot worse!

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 911 that has new pads (done a few thousand ago by OPC Bolton), squeals like you wouldn't believe...would they perhaps not have renewed the anti squeal shims? It's really embarassing to be honest.. any ideas on how to resolve (before I go back to the OPC ) I bought the car recently so my OPC is Reading, although I hear Wrightune is a good place to go?Can I do something myself to stop it?

POST 2Original post

DemonFish fitted RS29 Pagid Yellows on mine and they squeal too. I love it!

POST 3Original post

Bolton OPC have changed both rear discs and pads and more recently front discs and pads on mine. Rears have done about 15000 miles now and the front 4000 miles. I've never had a single squeal.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK guess I'll have to go to the OPC and see what they say then, unless I jsut go to a good indie like Wrightune..

POST 5Original post

Having just had the pleasure of using Wrightune I would say that you could do a lot worse! Good luck. Trevor.

POST 6Original post

mine are silent too. But would you all say that 996 brakes are any good ? Steve

So I take the car to Wrightune today and although the OPC (Bolton) had replaced the pads all round (and new disks on the rear) they didn't put the anti squeal shims (Porsche call them someting else, I can't remember what) in there?! Tony at Wrightune had the front ones which he put in and I go back tomrrow for the rears as he didn't have themn and the car still squealed. I hope that cures it - if not we'll have to do some more investigation. I'll let you know. How come as I am a PCGB member the web doesnt show me as one??

POST 8Original post

I would go back to OPC Bolton and give them what for.

POST 9Original post

Hmmm. I won't comment about the brakes, but you can probably guess what I'm thinking! [ ] You need to contact the club office and get them to tie up your membership number with your forum name. The forum software won't do this automatically. Alternatively try a post here: http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/fb.asp?m=375913 as it seems to work.

POST 10Original post

Sounds like you need to send a stiff letter to OPC Bolton threatening legal action if they don't pay for a) your costs at Wrighttune and b) your time spent in rectifying the issue ...
