Are 406 coupe brembos the same as v6 xantia ones?Dunno

If they are do you still get the brake squeal probs if you use xantia discs and calipers?

indeed the Xantia or C5 288x28 disc is the one used when converting a pug

the xantia had the classic handbrake on the front system with a girling caliper, brembo afaik don't do any handbrake calipers.

406's some do squeal some don't, but invariably when they're fitted to a 205/306 hub which has a taller bell and a lower lug radius then they squeal lovely.

A couple of thin silicon lines on the back of the pads seemed to sort 90%
