JK90 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 What causes the brakes to squeal? Not all the time but sometimes under light braking it's screeches so loud, pads and discs are fine, it's just a bit horrible lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOGIE Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Are the anti squeal plates in? Have you changed the pads and discs recently and forgot to replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzi Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Sometimes pads without a chamfered edge cause as squeal due a 90 degree angle on the pad edge making contact with the disc. If you chamfer the edges to 45 degree 9 times out of 10 eliminates the squeal. I've done this hundreds of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
