[QUOTE="Lunchbocks, post: 1672679, member: 564487"] um, just to add on to this, dont swap pads without doing Something with the rotors. your brakes typically develop a wear pattern, and new pads obviously have a fresh surface which doesnt mate properly with a previous wear pattern, so get the rotors machined or buy new ones if there isnt enough material to have them machined. and the squeak bar thing, yeah thats kind of like a moron proof warning system, similar to the idiot lights in your dashboard... if you dont know something is wrong already, these indicators are there to let you know thats theres probably already some damage. you should know your cars braking feel and be able to tell when it diminishes.
