Can some1 show me proof that it's the back of the pad that squeals?
Odd thing is don't the OEM pads have an anti-squeel backing? Seem to remember something being there.....
Yet they squeeled way more than my ds2500s which have no backing......
pad squeal is the result of pad vibration - using something like copperslip "cushions" the pad in the caliper and hence reduces/stops said vibration :coffee:
Evidence please .......
Still no hard facts in there that pin it on the brake pad vibrating. Apparently it depends on the pitch of the squeak. Could be a number of things ie DTV (disk thickness variation) I admit it says the brake pad vibrates but on the other hand it says this is often inaudible.
I would like to add how can a pad vibrate when under intense pressure from 1 the moving disk and 2 the pistons in the brake caliper. I meen I'm no scientist but something doesnt add up. This is ferodo covering up rubbish brake material IMO. EBC never squeeled and brembo after a wash was always right as rain. Pointing to a build up of brake dust between pad and disk.
Is there any independent evidence to show this as I'm still not convinced that this is closed book stuff
basically it could be the material and it could be the vibration so it doesnt matter
