Anyone have this problem? I had a similar thing on my Lightning but it is probably just because of the metallic pads. Sounds like crap though when you have such a nice vehicle.

I figured that someone else would have the same problem. I will disassemble it tomorrow afternoon and see what I come up with. Probably a bit of that anti-squeal additive on the back of the pad where it mounts will work just fine.

The squealing brake problem is due to the higher humidity that most of us are having. That combined with the higher content of metal in the pads makes for a noisy situation. My dealer ordered me a new set of pads anyways and will replace them. For some strange reason, my right rear outside disc was missing one of the anti-rattle clips from the factory. You can't order these clips without getting the complete pad kit, so they figured they might as well do the whole thing while they were at it.

The squeak that some of you are inquiring about seems to be coming from the coil spring perch. It is rubbing on the lower coil of the spring. It's a very normal thing and can be corrected by a small piece of common rubber garden hose around the lower coil of the spring.

I will post some pics for others after the weekend when I get a chance take some of mine for an example.
