    squeeking breaks

    Just got new ones, cross drilled slotted, new pads....yes, I put that stuff(not sure what you call it) between the caliper and pad to reduce noise.

    They have been squeeking, thought it was a build up of break dust. Simple Green cleaning(twice), still squeek.....any thoughts?

    Going to bring it back to where I got them installed on Thursday to see what they can do, but I'm guessing not much.

    Thanks- Jay

    My aftermarket slotted rotors moan initially until they get warmed up... performance rotors and pads tend to do that.

    I'm past the moaning stage, I was thinking to switching to ceramic(sp?) pads, would that help?

    What pads do you have on? I replaced mine with ones I got in japan, from N1.
