    Got new discs and pads on the car last week and the breaks are still very squeaky at low speeds especially just before it stops.
    Thier performance pads (carbone lorraine) in AP racing callipers so was expecting a little squeaking but taught it might stop when they bed in, i took the car out a couple of times to get the breaks good n hot and still squeaks. should this go away or is there something i can do like copper grease?

    check the brake fluid or its more likely the grease for the discs

    its not a big deal to the brakes or anything, just an annoying noise. :)

    Getting em good and hot may have caused the problem. would have tried to do a few miles on them before giving them to much work. i would strip it down and lightly sand the face of the discs to take off the glaze re assemble with copper grease on the back of the pads.
    should fix it for you.

    I do a fair amount of miles every day so had them on almost a week before i got them very hot, but will try what you said tomorrow, Cheers
