Bob...that sounds like a weird problem.  In fact, the Pagid yellows (I have
them on my VW) should not squeak, as they were desgined to be a lower
friction pad (hence the extra dust...)  I've never had mine squeak, not even
a chirp.  My dad's Cool Carbons, however, sound like pigs in heat until about
400 degrees....
