Hi, guy

I got some troubles with the brakes here. When we bought the car it was obvious it hasn't been driven in a long time. When you release slowly the brakes, the sound was like an old granny, rusty, rarely open house door. The same was when you push the brakes but in the very last moment just before you stop.

I tough it was the brake pads. I got them changed. I little difference. Then I read in the forum I have to apply copper grease on the back side of the pads, where calliper catches them. Did that too. Now weather is getting worse and rainy, the problem is still here and getting worse too.

What should I do to fix that, cause it's p****** me off grr
 
Glazing on the pads or brake shoes makes them sound rough, check for shiny top surface on either and if its present grind off with some mild sandpaper. (Y)
