brakes

Post by gardnt1 »

Just Bought our 2nd cc after many years away from them....originally had 2003 model new, and brakes were squeeky etc.... now own another 06 model...wondered if after all this time away there had been any resolve in fixing the squeeky brake issue? do alternative disc/pads resolve?

any info appreciated, Thanks!

Ours always squeal.

So do the brakes on my wife's uncles 206 SE.

They work well though.

A coating of copperslip on the back of the pads or the calipers where the pads sit should help. Just replaced all discs and pads on my daughter's and not a squeak! :wink:

Or ... the pads are too hard and more "performance" pads which will squeak until they are at full working temp ie really hot!
