Default Brake Squealing :(

Hi All

I recently did my front brakes and now have the worst squeal ive ever had


I have DBA 4000 discs which were machined, and Ferodo Formula 2000 Pads on a MY99.

I also replaced the pins and retaining clips that holds the pads. The annoying thing is the squeal is just from the right hand side.

I'm quite confident i bed the pads correctly. I checked the right hand side today and the pads are fine - not glazed or anything - i also used heaps of antisqueal on the back of the pads and shims.

When the discs were machined the guy never measured the min thickness, plus the slots are really thin almost gone.

Is it possible i need new discs - could this be causing the annonynig squeal.

The squeal only happens when applying light pressure and just occurs just before you stop - it is so loud though it is embarrassing.

Can someone shed some light on my problem?

Thanks Anthony
