S40 T4 Brake Mystery !?
Hi all at my wits end now trying to figure out whats goin on with the front brakes on the T4, it started to squeal a few days ago so i got the car up got the pads out and they were fine, half life left on them ? anyway put new pads in and for a mile or 2 they were fine, then the squeak came back, i then took the car to my friend whos a mechanic and he said they need copper grease on them and the edges of the disc skimming which he did, anyway again 2 miles down the road the squeals back, and now the the pads are starting to put grooves round the disc !?? the noise is like the brake pads have completely gone but this is not the case ??
Any help is much appreciated as its doing mine and my gf's nut in !!
PS The discs were new not that long ago !
