Get_some Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 '17 Africa twin dct. Front brake has an annoying squeak. There is a tiny bubble in the reservoir. No leaks. Only 3000 miles, pads look fine. Would a bleed and new fluid sort it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobert Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 Possibly try cleaning the disks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted April 5, 2020 Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) A squeak is usually the pads vibrating in the caliper isn’t it? Smear of copper slip on the back of the pads? Edited April 5, 2020 by David W 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much this. Part & parcel along with red lube for pistons, and brake cleaner on discs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurninman Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Have a look at the discs, too. If you have any minor ridges you'll get squeal . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
