Guys

I had me discs and pads changed in the summer by ford under warranty cause they were warped after 20K Miles ?????
Just a few weeks ago they have started squeaking and doin my head in my friend has had them off last weekend and sanded down a bit for me they didnt squeak for a couple of days and now started squeaking again, he said we are best to change the pads ive been looking at the green stuff pads hoping these will make a difference do you think they will and does anybody know if they are decent pads. Just dont want to waste money if they are gonna start squeaking again.

Check for marks o. The brake discs. Also look if maybe there is somerhing stuck between the pad and Dics. Like a small stone/wood/iron you never know. I've had the same problem.
