Default Re: Common Problems with the AU??

No its not meant to be touching. If its touching it will be generating heat which is not what you want. Ideally you want it as close as possible without touching. Adjustment at the rotor should be done first with the handbrake cable backed off at the handbrake lever. Then adjust the cable at the lever but if you try to get a nice low lever you usually end up with pads not releasing far enough and get the squeaking as you idle along. Only fix is a high lever if you dont want the annoying squeak
