Okay i just changed my brakes and rotors on my car about 1 month ago. i was wondering about this sound that comes from when i brake like the pads are worn when i brake it seems like i can feel the brake pedal squeek or make a weird noise dont know how to expain it really. (the pads/rotors are NEW) I was wondering do the TL have a problem with the caliper pistons sticking? i have enough brake fluid, no lights are on or anything like that...just curious if anyone else has experienced anything like this before??? Thanks

lol the same thing happened to me about 4 months ago. The weird noise will go away soon, i have no idea why it made that noise in the first place. So should be fine tho, just give it about another week or two....

Remove the wheels & inspect everything. A pad anti-rattle clip may be scraping a rotor. I had that issue. Easy to correct.

How old is the brake fluid? Is it mostly clear in the resv. or brownish? If it's old that will eventually lead to caliper failure.
