View Full Version : disco brake squeal

Most days now, once I have been driving for at least ten minutes or so a loud squeal comes from the brakes. Applying the brakes immediately stops the squeal and the noise starts soon after the brakes are released.

The wheel bearings are near new and there is no play. The brake rotors are probably worn beyond limits as I have done 315000 K's on them. The pads I last fitted were Bendix.
I have heard of some sort of goop that you can coat the surfaces between the back of the pads and the piston faces to stop squealing.

Any ideas
thanks

Yep, put the glue on and it will it will get rid of the squeeling. The squeeling is actually the pad vibrating in the holder.

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

If that doesn't work the music goes up on the way down regardless of Jenny's tastes.:twisted: :twisted:
