new pads and rotors noise
I feel like a jack *** and I've searched and figured I would find something but nothing seems to match my conditions. I just recently installed ebc green stuff with new rotors. I broke them in as recommended doing about 10 60-15mph hard brake stops back to back.(smelt aweful like it should) My problem doesn't seem to be inhibiting performance but when I slow down at high speeds I am getting a shurrrrrrr noise sounds like brake fluid spitting out of a leaky line. I checked the lines and the reservoir and everything checks out good. This just started after driving the car a week without the noise that I can remember.
EDIT the more I look into the more I found that the EBC pads have a long *** break in period. My guess is I wore through the break in coating and now I have to actually break in the rest of the pad. Whatever just got scrrred cause I dont want my brakes to break. haha

I planned on uploading after I got the car back on the road. Last night I swapped out the shitty FM rubber oil return hose for a AN one. Also got rid of the egr system. I can try and record with my shitty phone. I may have to zip tie it to the upper control arm to get the best sound with least amount of wind.

I figured that its because they are slotted and drilled. So when I am slowing down the whistle a little at high speeds. I only hear it on the highway or above 40+ mph. Thanks for reminding me to follow up
