Learn how to eliminate that annoying squeal you may hear when braking with the Fiat Tipo. Lift the car and remove one of the front wheels. Use a spanner to hold a bolt in place while you use another to unscrew the screw that secures the brake caliper.

Once done, rotate it upwards. Remove one brake pad and, using a grinder, chamfer the edge of the friction material.

Clean the seat with a special spray and apply copper grease to the mounting points and the back of the pad. Refit the pad and reposition the caliper, securing it with its screw, adding a drop of threadlock. Refit the wheel with the correct torque and repeat the same operations on the other wheel.
