Dunno if this has been asked before but my brakes on the R32 sometimes develop a blood curdling squeal at low speed application. Anyone else get this problem, or more importantly, anyone know how to rectify it? It happens more intensely just after I've washed her and yes I wait for the brakes to cool down to avoid disc warping before giving her a tub.

Smiling politely

Rhys.

yeh happens to me a lot. It also depends on what pads you use cos some pads are just like that and you have to live with it....

It doesn't happen much anymore... mainly when the pads were newish.. once given some good braking abuse they went away..

I noticed that happening when I wash my car too... dunno why

Put some oil on them or WD-40... :lol:

hahahahahha..... NOT!

I think many people are fail to check their brakes...

when was last time you actually checked them takin out and look and also when was last time you tested your spare tire pressure?

back to brakes... check them or replace them.

or I think you ca get some stuff decrease noize

cheers

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
