ok well i've got squealing going on. The problem is they squeal when I'm not breaking, and as soon as I tap or use the brakes, the squealing stops. Everyone else that talks about brake squeal says it happens when they use the brakes. Is this the brakes warning me that I need to replace them because they're getting worn?
Thanks, Trav |

this could be in "maintenance"...
anywho! does it constantly squeak or is it an "on -and-off" thing? your best bet might be to do a visual inspection of your brakes and check the wear on your pads. If its uneven there is a good chance you have a warped rotor or frozen caliper pin --------------------  The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |
