Squeaking brakes?
Anyone else have had this problem?
From about 15000km (about 10000 miles) the truck have hade som "squeeqing" from the brakes, coming and going.
The problem is getting more and more loud. The truck now has about 22000 miles (35000km) on the meter.
It's a lot easier to hear it when I have the Windows rolled down...
I've talked to the dealer and they have not seen/heard the problem when it has been in for regular service.
Have anyone else hade this problem?
Any Idéas?

Don't know the correct word for it, but when i brake, especially when I slow down and almost stops, and just before the truck stops, there's a noise coming from the brakes.

I had that issue when I bought mine at 22,000mi. I work at a garage so I turned the rotors (they were pretty warped for 22k). Also put some sandpaper down on a flat bench and scuffed the pads up. Then reassmbled everything with a bit of brake lube on the slides and back of the pads. No problem since then in the 3,000 I put on it.

I had the same/simliar noise and refused to believe my pads were finished with only 47500 kms so yesterday I popped off the wheel and caliper and looked closely at the pads. I noticed that the pads had a groove in them, well one did anyway the other one needed to be cleaned. With everything off i sprayed some brake cleaner on pads and on both sides of rotor. I haven't heard the squeal since. My sugestion be safe than sorry, check pads, if finsihed, replace them. If you still have enough left, clean them good and reinstall.
