| Rear brake pads replaced - now squealing |

Hi all,
Just had the rear brake pads replaced but we seem to know have brake squeal when moving (brakes not applied).. Is this something I should return to the garage that did the work for or will they bed in?

just to be certain, are you talking about a squeak when moving slowly (at a crawl) comin from the brakes OR a squeal when you release the EPB?
Did you have the Eletronic Park Brake cleaned at the same time?
back to the garage I recon, happen to best of dealers both LR and indepedents

In a time long gone and a land far, far away, one solution (if it is the pads) was to chamfer the leading edge of each pad. The Bearded Dragon

HI Mate
I had an issue with my car when I got the rear brakes done, the problem was a load squeek when going slow and also got loader when cornering @ slow speed!!
If this matches yours all i had to do to rectify it was move the disc protection plate away from the disc as it was this that was rubbing and causing the noise!! I did it with a long screwdriver and it was sorted in minutes as i could not be bothered going back to LR dealer as they are rubbish.
hope this helps
