Proper anti-squeal shim plates between the caliper pistons and backing plate of the pad help to reduce the problem. Anti-squeal lubricants are also available, to reduce some of the noise. The reality is that performance pads are more prone to brake squeal.
Step 1 Jack up the car. Apply Parking Brake and properly block rear wheels.
Remove plastic wheel nut covers using the factory supplied tool. Brake loose the lug nuts on both front wheels with a 17mm socket (for stock wheels) before jacking up the vehicle and secure on a pair of jack stands. Or jack one side only using a single jack stand of suitable load rating Step 2 Remove Wheels After securing the vehicle at a convenient height, remove the front wheels. Step 3 Remove Inner Brake Line Connection WARNING – Brake line fluid will damage most painted surfaces. Immediately clean spilled brake fluid from any painted surfaces. Place a drip tray or several rags directly below the inboard brake line connection. If the area around the connection is dirty, clean with brake cleaner or appropriate cleaning agent. Note- Be sure the cap is securely installed on the master cylinder. If the cap is loose or removed, it is likely more fluid will drip. Using an 11mm wrench, loosen and remove the hard line fitting from the stock brake line.
