Re: squealling brake pads

[Richard Clough]

Metal Kings are full of brass and are made for heavy use, its normal for them to squeel a bit if used lightly for a while (glazed, as you guessed) .  A quick run down a long winding hilly road should fix them for a while, or take them out and roughen them up. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kristian Walsham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 28 August 2002 10:33 AM Subject: squealling brake pads Hi all,       My Metal Kings in my 1600 (200B brakes) have started to make a slight squeal when i slow the car down gently but goes away if i brake harder. Is this a sign of glazed pads or the Pads themselves ( the brand), any ideas? If there glazed, how do i unglaze them. I`ve had them for about 6 months and they heve never made a sound.   Thanks,           Kris  --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
