squeelin brakes, an idea...... Options

[Eddo456]

Hey everyone, i was wondering if anyone had this problem besides me. I was giving it some thought, and after examining both of my front brakes, applying hte anti-squeel goo, and still no sucess, would it help maybe if i eliminated the metal shims in between the caliper and the pad??? has anyone tried this, or anything else to get rid of their break squeel, or what have you guys done when you replaced your break pads?? Any suggestions would be great, maybe new disks?? just not too sure here, but any help would be great

Did you recently replace your brake pads,if so thats always been the norm for me. Just take it easy on the brakes for a week or two and your noise should be gone, sometimes it takes a little while for the pads to get broken in. If they are old pads but they still have some thickness to them maybe they have crystalized from heavy braking(this however rarely ever happens). The shims you are talking about need to stay on there,if you took them off you noise would be louder and you would likely experiance more vibration when braking. You could try to get some anti squeel shims at your parts store,I've never had any luck with that anti squeel paste.
