Default Still squeaking....

My breaks that is!! I've lost count the amount of times it's been back to subaru. They have cleaned the callipers, pads and discs. then they cut the pads and applied lots of copper grease, but still they squeak once they are warmed up.

Anyone know of some pads i can buy to stop this annoying problem? It's a My03 sti.

Cheers.

David.

Same car same squeal, i've learned to live with it, as for replacement pads that is a very very good question!, I've seen some OE pads for sale on there for @£50... ebc greenstuff off here @£80 but some people dont like them....
Be good to hear some thoughts!

Don't even touch EBC Greenstuff, they are not recommended for Subaru's.
Red Ceramic are in 2 camps of love and hate.

Personally had no problems with Ferodo DS2500, got Pagid RS42-1's and they squeek like bast@rds but excellent stoppers, just had them out to re-apply more copper grease to the backs and shims.
