stupid brakes,

I took em all off, chamfered both ends, then applied the past......helped a tinny tinny bit but now its still there!!

its when I brake lightly to medium to a stop it squeals like a bus

, and when I brake hard from 80 etc it goes away for a few stops and come back

I was told these pads are quiet??

the rda extreams on front and pbr (sh*t ones) I had on the rear were quiet as but dusty.....however did not grip as well as these

could it be I used a DB1086 pad on the rear? they both looked and I was told were the same just slightly thicker pad??

should I take pads off, get a flat surface and lightly roughen them up aswell as the rotors and go bed em in again?

also fronts are slotted and rears are nin slotted if that makes any difference?

Maybe try Bendix Heavy Duty. Not sure if they'll live up to your stopping expectations but they are quiet on my T and barely dust up :nod:

try roughing up the pads with some sand paper and putting some anti-seize on the back of the pads where the pistons and caliper touch, hope it helps

Finally got rid of the brake squeal on my BF2 fronts. Was driving me crazy. Got some ThermoQuiet pads from Repco. Cheap as :)

Are they brake pads or pad backings?

Could only suggest change the pads and or give brake cleaner a go. You could have some dirt/dust between the pads and the rotor
