I am wondering if anyone has pictures of the two calipers that come on an 80q? ATE or Girling. I bought new pads and i have had a lot of noise problems. I am figuring it is because the pads may be wrong for the calipers. I thought I had ATE because Girling had two pistons or something like that? Any onfo would be appreciated.
thanks.... Jesus

and a flock of angels will lubricate your caliper pins with holy axle grease?
Seriously, did you bed the brake pads properly? (search for "bed brake pads")
Disk brakes, in general, squeak. But, if you have some glaze built up, you can take them off and rough them up with sandpaper again.

i can only use my powers when absolutely necessary.
Im asking about the calipers. This is a loud squeak we are talking about, like a screach I think i have the wrong pads for my calipers. I want to see pictures of the two calipers so i can tell which ones i have.
even if i sand the rotors, its not like i can re-bed the brake pads and magically make the sounds go away.
