    Brake problem

    Hello guys, every time I push the brake, it squeaks and it is annoying to hear, anyone experienced this?

    Squeaks inside the car? Most likely the pedal bushings. Outside, most likely the brake pads.

        Typically the noise comes from the pads. OE pads are quiet but dust up easily. Take a look at any of the online suppliers and read the reviews / recommendations. If you can afford it, replacing rotors and pads at the same time in always best to seat the pads properly.
