starletno1fan Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Im gettin really annoyed with my brakes now bcoz wen my mate fitted my lowering springs i believe he roared the nuts on too hard and wore off all the thread on the bolts.So now if i remove the nuts i dont think it will go bk on Anyway, brake pads are on metal.. front right is squeakin like a bitch even when im not braking and the front left sounds like an aeroplane wen i brake.Problem is i dont get my student loan till next friday and dont have any funds till then!! And i hav to go college all this oncoming week!! Pretty scared as bare dual carriageways and i dont want my brakes to fail on the way to college.p.s bit of a useless post, but fort id share my experiences.Eric Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shelly_star Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Well brakes are the most important, get them fixed/checked asap, even if you haven't got the money yet, as your parents for a small loan for the meantime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starletno1fan Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 took me a while to push the piston back, but then i realised takin the brake fluid cap off loosens it all up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
