Roof Member 213 Member For: 16y 16d Gender: Male Location: Perth | Busselton Posted 16/08/10 05:35 PM Share Posted 16/08/10 05:35 PM Sounds like your friends GT's may not of had some 'real' braking?A friend of mine in the race/rally scene told me many years ago (when I raised similar questions) that good brakes WILL squeak at times and WILL be dusty as all farrrk.. but they stop you quick right, that's an ok pay off! Mine were quiet until I did spirited braking.. knew as soon as I got the dust flowing the squeaks would follow, do I care? NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 17/08/10 05:45 AM Share Posted 17/08/10 05:45 AM I am so lucky I have never had this problem with my car ....yet lol.The rear brake and clutch plates on my Duke use to all the time if I was doing slow work or city riding. The noise was from the pads and plates glazing up. Ducati's run a dry clutch. 5 minutes with some emery cloth and no more sqeek or sqeal. On bikes you can get slotted pads. It is meant to remove the build up of brake dust on your rotors ????. All I know is they work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roof Member 213 Member For: 16y 16d Gender: Male Location: Perth | Busselton Posted 17/08/10 12:30 PM Share Posted 17/08/10 12:30 PM No brakes are 'supposed' to squeak... when the brake dust gets in there that's just what happens.Dealer could replace your rotors, calipers and pads - and it probably would start squeaking again within km's.Maybe change your pads to a less performing, less dusty pad if your that's what your worried about it.. there's a few performance brake places that will steer you in the right direction.My old VE GTS squeaked a little, probably less than the F6 but it also did not stop anywhere as quickHave you done your FPV drive day?I did mine a few weeks back and already have my eyes on a brake pad and brake fluid upgrade (even with the brembo 6/4 combo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
