Hi guys.
I have been listening to a squeak getting worse over the last few weeks. I am wondering if you have ever had the same squeak? I am kind of expecting to hear that it is break pads, but am curious if anyone else is able to shed some light.

Sorry for the late reply, Greased up ALL of the unis as they were bone dry! I must have forgotten to do them on the last oil change, and I am guessing that the mechanic didn't do it on the one before that either. To cut a long story short though, it is coming from the brakes I think. There is a piece of tin coming out of the caliper that is rubbing on the brake disc. these must be the mysterious "squealer pads" that I have never seen or heard before? Dropping it into the mechanics tomorrow to install a new clutch master/slave cylender, taller lift (brake lines and castor kit), tie rod and now brakes. Hopefully she drives straight with no wobbles or squeaks when the PooTroll comes back in the afternoon.

Cheers
