(64Kmiles on 855) Installed rear PBR pads Wed. in like a champ because the 850 rear Ate's are exactly the same as 1975-199X 240's (who knew?). I've done a bunch on 240/260's. Mostly used PBR's with zero issues. I used some red CRC anti-squeal goo that I never used before (usually use Sil Glyde) No noise, no nothing.
Drove car all is well, Gave car back to wife.
Next day, Thurs. wife backs car up and brakes. WOW SUPER LOUD METAL ON METAL!!
This AM I tear into the rear again thinking it's the goo. What a nasty mess. I'll never use that crap again. I take it all apart clean everyting perfectly (took almost two hours- normally a 30 minute pad change). I put everything back - used Sil Glyde, and the SOB is STILL noisy.
This time I take the pads out, cut a groove and chamfer the edges. Better but still noisy.
Screw it I'm putting in OEM next week. Or am I missing something????
