My Limited has always had this ear splitting brake squeal.
I took the near new pads and rotors off my XLT parts car and put them on, it shut it up for a while but the squeal is back now as bad as ever.
I noticed that there was some thick, gooey stuff on the back of the pads but didn't really look at it.
I did a search for squealing brakes and I see people using adhesive or anti seize or grease on the back of the pads.
What's the right thing to use?
Or are all acceptable when used by themselves?
