EBC Yellow stuff pads and pagid discs - Squeal
My fronts squeal terribly They have done a few hundred miles now and they still squeal, including when applying brakes whilst reversing. The rears are standard ebc pads and they don't make any noise.
Anyone have a fix for this, other than changing the pads. They have plenty of copper slip,and have been checked over to ensure no trapped stones or other debris.

They probably need to be bedded in more, not with light breaking but heavy, to get the pads & discs very hot.

Had this on my Fabia with Redstuff pads
Sqeaul for 1k miles. Mine lasted nearly 2k. Got fed up, took it up into 3 figures on a private road, and stamped on the pedal. 110 down to crawling speed. Never squealed again My D3 Build Thread
