Brakes feedback - 100 series pads in an 80.

Hi Ian,
Don't you have the squealer tabs in the pads - when they get down to
about 4mm they should start sqealing to warn you to change them.

Not sure, they didn't squeal that's for certain, just a quiet scraping
noise. Maybe it's my hearing - the other half noticed it first. To begin
with I thought it was just some muck in there but when it continued for
a few miles realised I had a problem.
I plan on checking the fronts soon so will have a look. How do I
recognise squealer tabs?
Ian.

Hi Ian,
There is a small strip of metal riveted to the back plate of the pad on
one end that folds back over to the pad side and protrudes 3-4mm -the
strip is only 5-6mm wide.

Julian,
I didn't have them on the rear pads I just fitted but I just checked my
spare fronts and they have them. The rears were the same make - both
from Milner. I didn't look at the old front ones that scored the disks
as a garage fixed them for me. But they certainly didn't squeal. I'm now
going to carry spares just in case - don't fancy paying ?300 again for
something that should be the price of a round of beers!
Ian.

The pads I used recently were from EBC, no fade and they seem to be
wearing well. You do have to be carefull with Milner stuff.

Not sure Milner are to blame the pads that didn't squeal were fitted in
Japan!
Should the Toyota rears have squeal tabs then?
Ian.
