no th y put the shims back on, and the pads are warren pads i think.....i think i should tell them to put the oems on, but when i went back they said give it so more time but i kno breaks are no supposed to squeek like this...it sounds like metal rubbing not like regular break squeeking like be4 i got the job done

so they didnt put the oem ones on?? when i got mine done they said that the new ones dont need the shims...my breaks started to make the loud squeal when going slow...i took it back to the shop and they put my old shims on and it solved the problem...

where can we get those shims? Because i think they didn't put my on and the old stock pads were trash it already. My makes noize when I brake slowly under slow speed. I have the hawk pad front and back.

Shims are individually tuned to match pad acoustic signature. Multilayer polymer impregnated steels = sandwich.

Why aftermarket pads can never be as quiet as oem designs.....
