Help! Brakes are squeaking!!!
I have Brembo Calipers. I just replaced my rotors and break pads. Project Mu 2 piece slotted/dimpled aero rotors in front and same 1 piece in rear with Project Mu pads. Braking is fine pedal feels good and stops real good but I am getting bad squeaking when I start braking at slow speeds.. I bedded them when I first got them. I now have about 500 miles on them.. I noticed when I first drive my car in the mourning for the first few stops it doesnt squeak. Also when im on the highway I gave it a few 80mph to 20 mph stops and the squeaking went away for a while but soon came back... It mostly happens when I lightly hit the brakes but if I hit them firmly all is fine... Its driving me NUTZ any input would be great! Thanx
First, I assume you used some sort of anti-squeal compound... if not, use some.
Re-bed your bads HARD... Do 80-20 stops until you can smell your pads, then do a few more. DO NOT stop you car for about 10 minutes after that (messes up the even application of pad material). If you do, start over again. Your rotors can absorb lots of heat and shed heat pretty quickly. Your new pads also operate at a reletively high temp. You need to get your brakes very hot to bed-in properly.
