|  What noise does..... .... Black Diamond combis with matching pads make???? Have fitted these and they seem a little noisy under braking kind of like a flight of ww2 fighters!!! No viberation or pull so I'm just wondering if this a pleasant side effect of the grooved disks....

| when i fitted grooved discs to my focus there wasn't any extra noise, it may be down to pad compound?

| My DS2500s squeaked like buggery when I first fitted them - maybe it was the heat, but now they're bedded in more, they're not too bad, with just occaisonal very low speed squeals.  (thats on standard discs though)

| My old BD combis sounded a little ruff at first, but once all the crap was off them they sounded just like any other grooved discs.

| I think I know the noise you mean Andy....difficult to describe but.....braking gently you don't get it but brake harder and you get a sort of droning noise. Have this with EBC grooved discs and DS2500 pads. Only seems to happen when you get some heat into the brakes.

| My EBC Turbogroove disks do this only when heated up and when you hit the brakes hard. Also refering to the noise as a flight of ww2 fighters is spot on!
