Hi all,
I'm been living with this annoying issue for a while and I'd welcome suggestions.
Whenever I run my track pads (Carbotech Panther Plus) my brakes squeak all the time, even when I'm not on the brakes. It actually squeaks louder when I'm not on the brakes than when I'm on them...when I'm on the brakes I hear a quieter, normal braking sound of a track pad. I do not mind at all the sound of a loud pad, but not when I'm not on the brakes!
I bleed the system when I change the pads, in the correct order. I have recently replaced my rotors. I've used tons of brake-quiet grease behind and around the pads, and I have new shims. I've even taken a file and beveled all the edges around my pads.
When the car is jacked up and I turn my front wheel by hand, it feels like there's a slight bit of brake pressure. I'm not sure how much of this is normal...?
Any ideas to stop my perpetual squeaking? thanks!
