Squeaking Brakes

[leedsboy]

Hi,

My car has suddenly decided that it now likes squeaking when I brake. Just done a search and it says to put copper grease on the back of the metal backing plate.
How the flip do I do this and get to the metal backing plate?

Cheers

take the bottom bolt off the caliper.slide calliper upwards and remove pads
put copper grease on back of pads and a lil bit on the pins
and just a general clean up of callipers while your there
get a wire brush an go wild

when putting the calliper back in push the piston in with a screwdriver to slide it back down
