hi i have an my95 WRX import and recently ungraded to 4 pots with standard discs and pads (2nd hand). The brakes have only done a few thousand miles but i get very loud brajke squeel when braking in reverse!

any ideas how to get rid of theis embarrassing noise!

cheers in advance

Mickey

 

The Brembos (certainly on the MY02STI) did this, I guess they still do???

I just live with it, but if you tap the brakes first time in reverse, it often stops subsequently

 

what causes this, is it just crap on the pads or discs?

 

Dunno, my Pagids do the same thing.

 

I often get minor squeal from the rear. Dealer has tried to fix it several times with no joy. But with mine, it's the handbrake. I just pull up the handbrake lightly when in reverse and that seems to cure it. Then I try not to use the handbrake at all and always park in gear. Hardly ideal, but it works for me.
