2006 500EFI, the brakes squeak constantly. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what are some good aftermarket pads for this? I have cleaned and cleaned and even filed the edges of the pads and they still continue to squeak.

 

My 06 700 rear break speeks also. Only when I tooling around the yard slowly. check for binding calapers and make sure the slides are well lubed. I'd also add and anit seeze/squeak blocker to the back of the pads. I use the Honda M77 lube on all of my break jobs and it helps.

 

Do they stop squeaking when you apply the bkakes?

 

Not usually, they only get worse the longer i ride. I have checked for a sticking caliper but that doesn't seem to be the case. I thought about putting some anti squeak on the back of the pads but haven't tried it yet, that will be next and then I will get new pads if it continues.

 

Speedy - Did you ever get your squeaky brakes figured out. I have the problem now too. Do you have any brake pad recommendations or any recommnedations in general? Thanks

 

Yes i finally got the squeak to stop. i applied the stop squeak to the back of the pads and it didn't help. I then took the rotors off and sanded then off, there was a lot of galling there and i figured it may have something to do with it. Then i also cut some slots across the pads like very other pad i have ever seen and put it all back together. hasn't made a noise since.

 

Thanks for the tip speedy.
