Good Day,

Recently purchased an excellent 981S. It has Ferrodo Pads installed -- and they SQUEAL!

Help Please -- Need recommendations for replacement Brake Pads. 

Thanks Folks!

Most noise issues are related to how the pads were installed; did they use the correct lubricants and install noise dampeners if so equipped?  If the current pads have not been done correctly, just replacing them will typically get you to the exact same place.............

Thanks.

Your good thoughts are echoed and embedded in the local shop's idea - to replace all - rotors, sensors and pads.

Interesting that they would like to do both front and rear -- when only the front seem to exhibit low-speed squeal.

Now the question is: How long can we live with the functioning system?

Appreciate your input,

JJ

Without actually seeing the car, it would be pure speculation of what is needed, and caliper studs or bolts, it still has to come apart, but sometimes using studs actually slows down the process because they are simply in the way when the caliper has to come off............
