Morning all,

I recently replaced the discs and pads with EBC grooved discs and Green Stuff pads. I'm getting an odd noise coming from brakes now, somewhere between a rub and a whistle (!).

I took it back to the garage who did the work and the guy who works there also has EBC pads and disks and says that he experiences the same noise and that the noise is normal.

Has anyone used this setup and experienced the noise?!

Cheers

I think it's normal. When I had grooved discs they made sort of a whooshing noise. They were EBC discs and yellowstuff pads. I assumed it was the sound of the grooves going across the pads.

They do work well but I have gone back to plain discs now after I first had a stone stuck in them and then after a few years wear deposits fused into the grooves causing brake rudder.

Thanks Jimmy, that was my thought too.

They do stop well!
