    Probably need new pads

    Pads have a metal tag that rubs on the disc when they wear out signaling time for new ones.

    the new ones will make noise untill they get the grooves that the rotors have in them....u might need your rotors machined...get them checkt out...the squeeking should have gone by now from the pads...
