New brake pads and noise
So I got some carbotech pads and this is my first brake pad change I've attempted. Before I changed the pads I was getting some squealing noises when I was barely tapping the brakes. Regardless of the noise, I wanted different brake pads anyways. So I installed the carbotech pads and put some lube stuff on the back of the shims. Then I go out to "bed" in the brakes. I hear some squealing on my right wheel ONLY when I press down super hard. I know there is a break in period for new pads and a proper "bedding" of the pads are required. However would this same noise be related to the noise with my old pads? My old pads didnt seem very worn out and the rotor seems to be in good condition. Should I wait a while till my pads are broken in or could it be something else?
