Sefton-EP91 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Anyone else's ds2500 pads squeak when under light braking? Not as bad when braking harsh! Quote
H_D Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 if you have put new pads on old disks this can happen for a while until the pad has bedded in Quote
morgey Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I have the same issue. Was told grooved discs help but havent driven mine in ages since fitting the new discs Quote
ReeceGolliker Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Copper grease the back of the pads, it reduced brake squeak for me Quote
akyakapotter Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 My ksports squeek but stop after a good run using them hard Quote
Sefton-EP91 Posted September 17, 2015 Author Posted September 17, 2015 Thanks for all the replies!! I'll get some copper grease on the back of the pads and see if it makes any difference! Quote
Sefton-EP91 Posted September 17, 2015 Author Posted September 17, 2015 Stripped them down today and it has made a massive difference, I'd say 95% of the squeak has gone. Only does it now when coasting at around 5mph and lightly on the brake pedal! I can live with that though!! Quote
daniel_g Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Strip, clean & copper grease works wonders! Quote
Sefton-EP91 Posted September 17, 2015 Author Posted September 17, 2015 Strip, clean & copper grease works wonders! It sure does lol it still squeaks a small amount but I can live with it! I haven't tried them when hot yet so we will see... Quote
gorganl2000 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 yeah...i find the whole brake caliper system can do with a good dis-assembly and grease up ever so often, especially during the rainy seasonand i suspect in climates with snow/sludge and salt spray it is even more important and putting a bit behind the pads themselves generally helps too--as you have been told Quote
ashley newbert Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Ferodo ds2500 pads squeek abit when cold and under light braking anyways because of the ammount of ceramic in them i wouldnt bother doing anything just drive faster and brake harder;) Quote
daniel_g Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Think you'll find that ds2500 are actually made from kryptonite mate. Quote
