ToF Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 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.

hanyou Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 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!

Edge Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 (edited) 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.

markimak Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 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?
