So how good is this greenstuff then, expensive to do both axles at once. But please give me your experiences!

I use the OEM pads, however, they don't squeak. There wasn't an option for that though so I just ticked the OEM Squeaks.

Mine are the original pads, and only squeak when going backwards? :? :hm
So I selected the top one.

Hi everybody.

I have just bought a Megane 225 and the brakes howl when I apply them whilst reversing . I have been reading this forum and it looks a pretty common problem. Any of you guys had a result from Renault in resolving this ?

Hang on, that makes my vote wrong.... can you change that too Ray??

Second thoughts leave it, it will probably develop squeaks sooner or later, even with the Renault 'fix'.
