Break Noise

Anyone else have this issue:

Often, when I first start my car regardless of the weather, my brakes squeak. I've already got my brakes changed, and when they do squeak I just spray on the brake spray but it always seems to come back. Any suggestions?

from experience it's the pads....I went the whole squeaking route and it turned out to be pads. Get new pads and clean the rotor really good.Do not touch the rotor at all. Grease and other junk on pads is a no no!

What are you spraying on the brakes to eliminate the noise??? Can't be good whatever it is...

Yeah, either the material in the pad sucks, your rotors may need to be replaced, or you need some anti-squeal behind the pads, to prevent the metal to metal noise inside the caliper. No matter how you slice it, wheels have to come off, and brakes have to be inspected/worked on. Don't spray $h!+ on them...

Anti-squeal application...may be a little over kill in this picture, but you get the point...
