Before you read, I relise the grammer/spelling error in the Subject Title, excuse my tiredness! lol

Hey,

I got my TR serviced today, through a good mechanic my parents have been using for years. Anyway I got my exhaust/muffler replaced as the old one was so noisy, the whole thing was split down the middle!

To my question though.

My mechanic changed my front brakes, but for some reason they are still squeking, could this be due to...

- New brakes
- Dust Collection
- Something else

I came back from a long trip on sunday and they seemed to be worse, they wern't to bad after I got the car back from the service, but whenever I completly push in the brakes, it starts squeking, if I only put it in about 1/4 of the way it's fine, but sometimes is too slow at stopping? any ideas.

Also I need to get new tires, could that be related at all?

Cheers, muteLABS/carbon

i think you might have to get the discs machined dude to get rid of the noise, ive got it aswell ever since i slammed the brakes on once, hope i helped, dave :)

I don't think he changed the pads, just the brakes. He only did the front ones aswell, said the back were fine. I dunno I'll live with it for the time being but if it get's worse i'll get it looked at! Thanks for the help.
