Always Overcharged

Anyone know how to silence pads.
I have taken them out and scuffed them but no better [rotors have been ground]

What pads did you install? What rotors are you using?

Always Overcharged

They were generic brand of pads so this may be the problem

... follow the proper bedding procedure AFTER you installed them, to seat the pads properly on the face of the rotor and apply the layer of friction material?

One thing I did right... Listened to PaulW and spend the extra bucks for dealer pads. Not a sound

Bvarghese

Help me out here, what non friction material should you use? what should i ask for at teh store... Brands? products?

PaulW

Never been able to find a pad compound that matched the one you can get at the dealer. They won't squeal.

Most other non OEM pad compounds squeal over time because they are too hard.

No, Im sorry that's not what I meant. When you first install new pads, you need to "bed" them, and that means performing a bedding procedure which applies a nice layer of the *pad's* friction material to the rotors.

I wasn't talking about grease.
