right after i got my first break service... they replaced the pad and resurfaced the rotors... car brand new and until my service they didnt squeek...only when backing up
Here is why.... U need to bed in your brakes.
Chances are, that this is why it is happening....
I know you dont have the stoptech's, but try and follow this as close as possible, then report back and let us know if it fixed it.
Make 10 decelerations from 60 to 50 to 5-10 mph. At the end of each brake manuever, immediately accelerate to 60 again for the next deceleeration. Run all 10 manuevers in one cycle.
Afer coolinng run a 2nd cycle of 10 decelerations like the first.
* Plan this procedure so that you dont have to stop with your foot on the pedal while the brakes are hot. Try and use a level surface, and
DO NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND KEEP YOUR FOOT ON THE PEDAL WITH BRAKES EXTREMELY HOT.... THIS WILL CAUSE ISSUES IF YOU DO.>>>!
Try that and report back soldier.

so i do 10 decelerations 60-50mph to 10-5mph.. right before i get below 10-5mph i accelerate back up to 60... and do this 10 times... cooling run i take it i just cruise at a steady speed with no breaks...and do the accel/decel run again... i think i might have an area to do this... but sh*t man

yeah. And do it hard! If abs intervention or lock up was 100% brake effort. Do it apporximately 80-90% just short of abs.
Most people dont brake hard enough. So do it hard, and make sure there arent any cops behind you

i was waiting for you post truplay8... you post on everyone elses.. but then i was like... i guess he dont got squeeky breaks... you get them forwards and backwards?
i can't stand em. i mostly get them while braking in reverse. but sometimes with regular braking as well. it is embarassing! i even have aftermarket pads and i still get noise. damn nissan brakes suck azz
