I just installed gsr front brakes on my eg. Now the left pad is rubbing against the rotor and making a squeeking noise. Is there a way to adjust the distance between the pad and rotor?

the pad is supposed to stay against the rotor, if not you would have to pump the brakes to stop. you have another problem.

if u do that..it might make the squeak go away..but the problem could still be there (what ever it is) and it could get worse..and 1 day..you wont be able to stop ..so figure out what it is first..

I understand

wait, do you mean the calipers are too close, or it's stickign? because in the post u said it's too close so it's rubbing, but the title said it's sticking

If it's sticking you need a new caliper if you can't resolve it with some lube...

If it's too close....I don't know what to do..I've never experienced that kinda problem..

i can try to help you but i need more info. like when does it squeek, all the time, when you hit the brakes, etc... also what kind of pads did you use.

did you put some grease on the sliders?

Yeah I'm a bit confused if u mean the caliper's too small for the rotor it's on, or it's sticking..

If you put some lube or grease in the moving parts of the caliper and it still sticks, it's time for a new caliper..if it's too small, it's time for an adjustment (if that's even possible) or a part change..
