Default Brake Squeeeeeeeeek with big blacks

I've tried the factory pagid brakes and some mintex pads , same low speed squeeeeeeeeek when pulling up to stop lights etc. Please educate me on the anti-vibration pads - how do you install them, etc.

If you're using the factory pads (all 8 of them) then they just press into the brake pistons. I have them on mine and still get brake squeal at light to moderate pdeal pressures. What year car do you have them on and what adaptors are you using? Does the pad protrude beyong the top of the rotor at all?

I have had the same result with the Pagid and Mintex, but the Textar pads are quiet for me.

Good luck

Clean all surfaces real good, then put brake lubricant on the backs of the pads and on the pad edges where they sit in the caliper.

Follow up - with the vibration discs installed the brakes are now silent with the Mintex pads....
Thanks !
