Re: Need Help!

did you get anything on the pads when you were installing them i.e brake fluid, grease/dirt?? also what shape are the rotors in?? worn rotors and new pads= brake noise, less stopping power. try scuffing the pads with some course sand paper then reinstalling, and spray some brake clean on rotors and wipe down with a CLEAN rag...
