So I guess 88 bucks for labor per caliper is reasonable??

Either way I will most likely get Dr Drift to check them out and deal with it because ABS seem a little dodgy.

Try Racebrakes in flemington.

One of the dieing breed of no nonsense, no bullshit honest workshops.

these are like my breaks it is driving me f**king nuts hahaha... it only squeaks wen it feels liek it then it stops then comes back!!. so ive bought anti-squeal stuff gna do it tonight or tomo ill let u know how it went

[hanyou]

it worked i used wd40 to clean the back of the brake pads & also the metal sheets holding onto them. then put antisqueal and all squeaking gone!

dude im having the EXACT same problem .. its f*kt!!! i just got all 4 pads replaced and now my car squeaking like a cuunt wen i brake!!!! and abs wanna charge me

$940 2 get it fixt... GEETTT FKT!!!! ...bbut yeh... cheaper solutions ive been told are 2 get the rotors machined... and yeh replace calipers as my front ones have seized! - jt

Is that why they squeak? You guys are sure its seized calipers?

I changed my wheels to 18 inch and they no longer squeak anymore. I thought it was temperature and pad temperature missmatch.

Miraculously the squeak went away in mine 20 minutes after I put 18 inch rims on. I am putting this down to better air flow to cool the rotor.

same with my GTR. only squeaks when u warm them up. i mean warm. a few 120-20kph sprints warms em up and they r louder than full throttle.

clutch firction material is near the same as pad material right?
