Subaru Brake Squeal

[bicknd]

Thanks to all who have posted so far, the problem description is
verbatum to the one we're having with our '98 legacy/outback. A lot of
good suggestions to a possible fix. Hopefully I'll be able to post a
follow up message with a sucessful solution, or at least what worked
for me.

rd- Thanks for the insight, but im not sure i want to permanently grind
new pads and rotors.

Carl- thanks for the the website. I tried a series of high-speed stops
(a series being 2; the website reccomends 10 high speed stops) and it
fixed the problem for a few minutes, but came back again.

k. ote- I cant believe i did not think of that. I inspected it on a
scissor jack. Im going to go out and look to see if there is any
contact with the dust plate.


Thanks a lot for the help.

Probably a cementite deposit on the rotors. New rotors are the best fix.
