    Brake Squealing....

    Alright, I can't seem to get rid of my damn brake squeal!

    It is coming from the driver rear and I have redone the brakes multiple times...

    1st - Balo Rotors with PBR Deluxe Pads one rotor glazed while the other wore perfectly fine.
    2nd (current) - Centric Rotors with Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads.

    The squeal happened after the 1st brake change due to the glazed rotor. Took off that set up and ordered a complete rear set, and the squeal went away temporary and now it has returned... I rode in the back seat and opened the doors to each side listening for the squeal and it is coming from the driver rear. So I thought it would just need some anti-squeal paste, which I took off and redone with a new fresh coat of anti-squeal lubricant. I used CRC Anti Squeal Spray. After a little while, the noise came back..

    There are no rocks or anything between the rotors and pads. Everything fit and installed properly without no issues on fitting. I have ran out of test methods to remove this damn squeal.


    Thoughts and suggestions?

    ON GOING ISSUE! Noise came back for the last 6 weeks or so and its getting REALLY annoying. I bought a spray my Squeal-Medic, something like that.., and you spray it on the rotors.. Noise went away for maybe 100 miles but now its back. Do I really need to change the ROTORS AGAIN? I don't do any hard braking in this car, its for my parents to drive and its quite embarrassing coming to a light and all you hear is SQUEAAAAAAAAAAL!!
