Re: brake squeak (i know this is common, specific question)

5900mile is nothing, I have 20k plus and i have original pads, no squeak or anything. sometimes after moisture (rain) squeaking can occur or just a case by case difference. simple cleaning might help. if the front brakes give a rattle noise that means the pads needs replacement and i need after every one year. i use bopth brakes but whenstopping onslow speeds or just in stop go situations in a traffic jam i use the front brakes as i can change them myself for the read i had to go to the shop will cost more for labor.
