nothing really......

 

[BenR]

it might squeel, but ive installed pads without grease all the time.

Thanks thats what i need 2 know.

Its not a spankable offence then

Anyway they squeal anyway because i overheated the discs slightly when it was new

 

[BenR]

dont worry about over heating the disc.

My drivers side brakes squeak, think al try puttin abit more grease on cus it really does me head in!

Would bleedin them make it any better!

 

[BenR]

nope

Squeels are made by teh pad vibrating in its housing because the leading edge is touching the disc first...you can try chamfer it.
