[QUOTE="teejay, post: 47371, member: 51"] have a visual inspection if you can, this means removing the pads from the calipers and measure the rotor thickness, sometimes occasionally some parts of the pads will wear out faster then the others due to uneven clamping of the calipers-due to the floating design, or maybe part of the caliper maybe too close to one side causing more wear then the other side your mech will be able to replace the rubber seals at the mounting, where the cylinder slides, and grease it up again i had the same squeling noise, but choose to ignore for a few weeks, and the same as yours ,its occasion and pressure dependant when i checked, part of my pads was totally worn and had bitten into the rotors [/QUOTE]
