screeching brakes 740 sedan 1990
hi there,
I have this horrible brake squeal going on with my front discs (well it sounds like the front) whereby I can be heard 2 miles away. my family know i'm on my way home 5 mins before i arrive! I have replaced front pads and had the discs machined but to know avail. they will will screech at all speeds - even when moving inch by inch. my mechanic tells me that cuts can be placed in the discs (but only done in a certain way) that may stop it.
is this a common 740 problem or is it just a general issue because asbestos is no longer used in pads?
any ideas on fixing this problem
