Front brake shims

[Dave185]

Good afternoon fellow 'rocco heads.

Driving to and from a show this afternoon, my squeaky front brakes were winding me up. So I thought I would check it out when I got home. The discs and pads are in good condition, so I can only assume it's a shim squeak? It squeaks occasionally when in traffic and no foot brake applied, so that's why I guess shims.

However, I can't find any for sale. Just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction? Part numbers or websites to check?

It's a Mk2 1.6 GT.

Cheers guys and gals!

Back of the pads and the contact points where the ends touch the caliper treated with some appropriate lube? Copper grease or similar hight temp grease

If you have the VWII calipers these fit, you should be able to see them fitted if you have them already?
If so do what Nate says.

Good shout on the copper grease, didn't think about that. Doh!

I will give that a blast tomorrow afternoon and should that fail then I will pick up the new shims.

Yes, I can see the shims fitted already, just about thought the BBS's. They have definitely seen better days.

Cheers for taking the time to reply and find the part guys. Much appreciated!
