Squeeking Brakes

[cschollum]

Ive renewed the rear rotors about a few months ago, I havent driven the car a great deal, perhaps 1000 miles - but after about 300 miles they have developed a squeel, which starts when braking at slow speeds, if i brake harder i dont get it - I was rather hoping they would bed in and go away but it hasnt ant its very annoying

The rear rotors and pads were changed with Genuine Parts & I copper greased the pads in the calipers as i always do

any suggestions?

Hehe. Sounds like time to rebed the pads properly... RE: http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/tech/techpage.jsp?techid=85

There are numerous opinions in this forum. Do a search...

I have no opinion about the problem but if Qube is right and it is the bedding process, here is a link to a nice write-up on the subject.
