Default How long will I squeal?

Ive just had some redstuff front pads fitted-

Someone please tell me that the squeal is just while they bed in??

It's quite loud

Much better stopping power though (had braided hoses done as well)

Cheers

Mine have never made a noise since day one
600 miles sounds a right PITA

Some do some dont, it is kind of strange.

Not sure if you will be able to see the black shims whilst the pads are in the caliper. Possibly.

Noise should certainly decrease with more miles.

My pads (Redstuff) also made a noise for about 750miles or so and as Buck suggests the noise will stop or at least mine did.
