As above, I have a 325mm Kit with AP 4-pots and 1144 pads. The Mintex pads do have a small letter "L" on the side of the pad does this mean "LEFT" or "LEADING" or does it mean nothing!

Need help as they are squeeling like mad when brake at less than 20 mph

Were are the biggest suppliers of Mintex here in Ireland. The squeal has been a constant problem. It is greatly reduced by fitting a set of anti squeal rubber pads to the back of your pad. It should be available from your pad supplier. Solves the problem in 90% of the cases.
