My FN2 is suffering from worn and squeaky brake pads. I mostly drive in the city centre in rush hour and do a lot of quick, stop start driving. I was thinking of buying online and fitting myself. Any advice gratefully received

I tried the copper grease a month ago and it worked for a while but is now back worse than ever, will probs just order OEM. Thanks for your help

I read on a forum today that Honda OEM pads have an "early wear indicator" built into them and that is why they squeak, to let you know to change them. It looks like copper grease would only delay the inevitable. I saw them for £110 on Hondas fixed service plan and thought it seemed ok as it includes 12 month warranty on the work
