diablo23 1 Report post Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Hi all, Is there any way to prevent or fix brakes from squeaking on an e39? Is the e39 brake pads crap or...do they usually need replacing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Edited December 16, 2008 by Tha Cosa Nostra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The brakes had begun wearing down the backing plate They also hadn't been making any noise either (though my brake discs had turned a rather dark shade of grey:) ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
