:?
Own a auxr8 sedan and have a problem with the brakes.They stop well but when u r moving slowly they make a squeak,like as if the disc caliper is not releasing properly.
The front has fairly new rotors and pads are good,the back has had the disc machined and new pads.
Would it be the brand of pad?Or maybe the bearings?

NO..anti squeal, you put on the back of brake pads before you put them in the caliper...


Brake Anti-Squeal
PBR anti-squeal adhesive is specially formulated to absorb noise and vibrations which stem from the brake pads. This product is water resistant, easy to apply and suitable for all popular disc brake caliper applications.
