Alright I have 25K on the 05 6mt tl...... my problems are the brakes are squeaking like crazy. Wether I'm driving at 60 or 100 u hear them slightly and when u hit the break slightly or hard..... still squeaks. I noticed I had black marks on the rotor and my friend who works on the car for me said it's from the pads......lets not forget these are brembo's. The alignment is off (does anyone know if I should have new specs to the alignment?) the car is dropped so maybe the geometry is diff... I used the ASPEC suspension specs but it doesnt seem to make much of a difference. I have the aspec struts with the S-tech coils from Tein. My engine at times seems retarded in power does anyone know if this because of outside temperature or from something else?

Thanks appreciate the feedback.

Hmmm... Maybe its time for new brake pads. As for your alignment, try adjusting your toe..... That retarded in power feeling might be the VSA or Drive-By-Wire Throttle, turning off VSA might help a bit....

This is an old TSB but it may apply. This is for 04 TL's with an early production VIN range. I looked this TSB up because Ive heard some squealing from time to time. Not as much as you are descibing but they do squeal none the less.
