Just a quick note...I'm beginning to get some brake squeal, primarily at
lower speeds, from my new System 3 brakes. The pads are Mintex Reds, and the
rotors are slotted Brembos. I've done the initial treating of the rotors and
am about to do the last step on the pads...but in the meantime, how can I
reduce the squeal?
I have the Porsche noise pads installed behind the brake pads on the inner
side of each brake. The Bira directions weren't specific about where these
got installed - inner or outer, and it seemed a bit odd to me that only one
side would get them. Was it 2 per caliper, rather than 2 per installation -
ie, do I need the pads on the inner *and* outer sides of the brake?
What else should I do?
