retrocorrado 0 Posted March 9, 2011 hi i have a 1.8 16v, i have a high pitch squeek coming from the f/d side wheel, it stops when applying the brakes hard but pressing gently just changes the tone!! i have changed the discs, pads and cleaned the back plates. all i have left is the calipers but if it still squeeks ill be gutted!! spent loads at garages now and still getting nowhere!! does anyone know if it could be anything cheaper?? cheers.

retrocorrado 0 Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) nice 1, ill give it a soak in brake cleaner, i have been trying to find a service kit which includes sliders e.t.c, but i cant find anyone who sells 1 for a rado, always the way!!

Purple Tom 0 Posted March 9, 2011 You can't get the slider pins seperately, they only come as part of a new carrier, however this company sell a repair kit with new piston seals, dust seal and slider pin seals etc - £17.50 - it's the top one - link Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
