Anyone got brake squeal?
I've even removed pads on OS, put more copper slip on, but still same, is driving me crazy

There were big issues with the early US cars but believe they were resolved as warranty job. Might be worth a quick search. Will be interested how this pans out as we may be in same situation at some point.

How was your driving in the first hundred-odd miles? Is it possible you didn't break them in properly?

 

[Ian whu]

I've had more new cars then hot dinners, being a ford employee.
I've never ever broke brakes in, never had a brake squeal ever on anycar

I believe it's addressed in TSB 15-0030. Probably should have been addressed already as you car was built after 11/2/15 but you never know

I've started getting this too, just came on a few days ago.

3.5k in now and not a sqeak ian, still silent as from day 1, hopefully a cheap fix

Have you tried doing an emergency stop and see if that clears it? I know it's not the answer but worth a go.

Can time your 60-0 time too

 

[Ian whu]

Yea Jim, tried that. Comes back,

My brakes grind the first few touches as I reverse out or manoeuvre
But there ok afterwards, certainly not screeching to a stop like a train.

I have front brake squeal when I do a full lock left coming to a stop, before I reverse into my drive.
I wondered if it had anything to do with having performed a few 'line-locks'.
Has anyone with brake squeal NOT done line-locks ?

 

[Ian whu]

I've not done one yet

 

[CapitanPug]

I've not done one yet

Thanks - rules that out then

Not for our GT brakes though (6 pot)? Maybe there's another for them. :shrug:
