I don't have a squeal problem because when I've bought pads from Rusty, they always come with the little single-use packet of the gray grease to put on the back. FLAPS sells it too for lesser cars in a similar packet at the checkout, but without the M-B star on it. My hypothetical ramblings about maintaining pad angle were just that. :) Alex _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
