I installed new brake pads and discs I have brembo discs and pagid pads, when I changed them I applied the anti squeak copper stuff and gave the caliper a quick clean but they are squeaking anybody know why?

Did they have integral anti squeal shims fitted on the pads ?, I have bought pads int the past and you needed to transfer them from the old pads.

I found the copper stuff awful. You could give this a try (it's what I use):
https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/...luids-and-greases/grease/?526770250&0&cc5_150

On the bright side, if you wait long enough and remove the pads, it'll be shiny where it's rubbing and you'll know where to put the extra grease.
I wanted to get brembo pads I have brembo discs but the pads were to small do you know where I could get brembo pads to fit on stock caliper

EuroCarParts have them for my MK2. Might be worth a look.

Wrong section as well this needs to go in the MK3 Leon section as its a SEAT Leon Cupra. This section is for new CUPRA cars....


If Brembo made pads for the stock discs they would be advertised on websites such as GSF

GSF list them £135 for Brembo + 60% off code at the moment
They only have the rear brake pads the front pads are for the brembo calipers and I have the stock cupra calipers my pads are 155mm the brembo pads are 135mm I think, but thank you anyway for taking the time to look.

I've been looking every where and can't find them I think I need the brembo calipers not the stock cupra calipers.
