Just changed my Disc's and pads on the rear of my S1 111s. Put some Greenstuff pads on, did all the sticky stuff on the backs of the pads!!!
But I have a squeek now as I am braking. mad
Can anyone give me some advice on the best way to shut it up please.
Thanks for any help given thumbup

The newer Greenstuff did on my elise too...it sounded freakin' awful! Like someone scraping their nails down a blackboard!

It will fade after a while, think it's something to do with that red 'bedding in' area as I never had any squealing problems with the previous Greenstuff pads which had no red bedding in area...wouldn't worry about it!!

You think that's bad? You should try the OEM replacement MMC pads.... squeal like a sackful of pigs being fed into an auger.
