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 |

Most likely either a pad shim or one of the "fit clips" that the pads slide in is loose and wiggling.
Or possibly the pad itself. Once you put pressure on it, it can't move. --------------------  |
