squeaking brakes that drive me crazy
alllll right. when i first got my car i didnt realize until a little later that when i braked in reverse my brakes would squeak. so i had them looked at and i was told that there was nothing wrong. well after i got my car back, the sound was more prominent and worse. so i brought it in again, and they had to order new nissan pads. well turns out they only put them on the front. my brakes seems to howl and squeak louder than ever! so i had them put new pads in the back as well. and damnit you know what... they still make noise.
this dude handling my car told me that some cars are just prone to have squeaking brakes. for some reason i just think he is full of **** and is hating that he is working on my car for free.
any ideas as to what is wrong with mah carro im beginning to hate this inconvenience! or maybe just give me advice as to what move i should make next. thnx lots!

Your 3 posts lead me to believe you haven't done this yet...do a search! There are roughly 4 million threads on this forum discussing brake noise issues.
But to answer your question , try bedding them in properly: http://www.stoptech.com/tech_info/wp...contents.shtml

Got it. Seriously, try the bed-in first. This usually works quite well.
You may also want to Hawk HPS pads. They are very reasonably priced, quiet, and low dust. Most forum vendors carry them.

there is a tsb for our cars making noise while going in reverse, they add shims to front pads, mine used to do this until they did the tsb and put the shims on, it's all good now.
