Brakes squeak w/ not even pressed
I have put on new ceramic pads within 2000 miles. They were fine for a while but im noticing a slight squeak now when stopping and even when going around corners and not pushing them. I was thinking that it was warped rotors. Is this it,or is something else wrong?

Re: Brakes squeak w/ not even pressed
Well, ceramic pads themselves tend to squeak when cold; and in my experience, they like to get a little warm before they quiet down and work well. Hearing them when not on the pedal, going around corners, hmm. Maybe a warped rotor, maybe alignment problems? How old are your tires and suspension components. Stock original? Or brand new? I would lean towards one of those two areas to concentrate on.

mine squeek just driving around
I bought new rotors, still squeeked. Bought new el cheapo pads and still, so I used some stop squeek and it went away for 2 weeks then came back but not as bad. I think Hawk makes some pads that aren't supposed to make any noise?

It is possible that it is my suspension. I have a good alignment but most of the suspension is stock. Tires and pads are new. What should i look at in the suspension? Only thing i can think of is tie rods may need to be greased or balljoints.
