Just a quick question to ask what to do about it. Only when its gentle braking going slow but its quite annoying. I decided sraying them with WD40 wasnt the best idea Confused so what do i do?

Thanks in advance. Thumbs Up

also when you've got the pads out rub a bit of sandpaper on them, sometimes the pads glaze a bit and that causes the brakes to squeel aswell

beat me to it. Thumbs Up

also wd40 on the braking surfaces of the pads and disks is a very bad idea. try and clean it all off before you need them.

A touch of wet and dry on your disk will take the glaze off and stop the mice noises.
