Brake Squeak
HI, I think I am hearing the dreaded brake squeak. How many miles have you gotten out of your original brake pads? My squeak is coming from the rear end. I only have 32,000 on my 2000 vert. I am the third owner, but I think all of us have babied the car.
Thanks

60k to 70k out of rears, at 13 years old it may just be time to change them. I have 150k on my 04 and ready for the second set. just put the 3rd set on the front.

No, but I am hearing a squeak that sounds like the pad warning squeak. I am just surprised that at 32,000 miles, my pads may need to be replaced. I was thinking that he pad material maybe soft and wear out quicker than a normal car.
