Low Speed Wheel Squeaking Noise

[reddctr]

Just found this thread, have you found the solution ? I've started experiencing that exact noise in the video. It seems to be coming from both rear wheels. I have 8500 miles, stock, just the occasional pulls but its my daily driver. Not going the dealer route based on your experience. I'm going to try putting new rear pads and see if it helps. I'll update here soon.

For my case at least, I have narrowed it down to excessive brake dust causing the squeal. Using brake cleaner and "de-squeak" from CRC fixes the problem for a few days, and then it comes back.

Also don't wash the car when the brakes are still hot. Made that mistake once, and brakes started squealing immediately. Don't sit on the brakes at a stoplight too, they get extremely hot in places with excessive heat, and sitting on them for longer periods of time may cause the uneven deposition of brake dust on the rotors. I guess it worked for me when I was in Maine, but in hot and dry Arizona, I have to wait longer to clean it and need to be more careful.
