But will have to see how long it lasts for  :-/

First off, changed the front pads...for new ones filed down even more than Vx champer them......No difference   Still squealed when hot.....
The old pads were only about 50% worn ......

So this afternoon........changed the rear pads, again for new ones filed down (Vx dont put a champer on the rear pads).....the old pads were only 50% worn as well.......

But the squeal has gone  

Anyone wanna buy part used rear pads that cause squealing  :-/

I might be able to find a second hand cambelt and tensioners as well.......only done 42k.....yours free if you buy the brake pads

You'll have to try harder than that.

Knock the 2 pins out....old pads levered out..how you get the pistons back is your decision.....to get the new ones in  

Gently tap the pins back in.......and your away
