Real simple

The job was not done correctly

Either the flex hoses are bad inside,
the calipers are rusty inside because
the fluid isn't flushed every 2 years, &
no one removes all rust & lubes any
of the required abutments,or sliding surfaces

The repair shops are the worst with that

You may not have application specific
brake pads or a proper rotor resurface
if done at all

When you say still
There should be no noise ever,
even on wron pads.

Poor workmanship or neglect are the
only causes of noise

When i first start to drive my 2005 dodge neon the brakes squeek after about 2-3 times the brakes stop squeeking any ideas?

Probably just surface rust and or dust in drums if you have drums. Pretty common. Have had 2 Neons and both did the same. Especially after a damp night (dew) or rain, first few stops would squeek. Used to push pedal slightly when I first head out to clean them off and that seemed to help.

I had my front brakes and rotors replaced about 150 miles ago ...now I notice a squeeking when Im braking ..The abs light goes on and off and when it goes on I feel a little pressure on the brake peddle...

You have an issue with your abs. It could be a wheel sensor failure. The squeaking sounds like a different problem. Some brake pads are metallic and will do this, or something is incorrect during the installation.

My brakes squeak in my toyota camry. How do I get

I am assuming you already changed the brake pads. Make sure that the backing plate is on the backside of the pads it wouldnt hurt to put some disc brake quiet (spray) on the backside of the pads. also make sure all of your caliper shims are in place and not rubbing on the rotor. Make sure rotors have been resurfaced or replaced if they are too thin. any imperfections will cause vibration which will cause noise. Some cheap brake pads will squeek no matter what you do. in this case I recomend ceramic brake pads the best price I have found is at pep boys this type of brake pad is superior and very quiet, stays cooler, less brake dust on rims and much better braking. I use pep boys ceramic pads on my customers cars and have had no complaints from them. where with cheaper quality pads it is hit and miss that is why i tell my customers up front if they want the cheaper pads they should expect some noise from time to time and not to be alarmed. It doesnt mean anything is wrong just too much vibration and heat while braking

2006 chevy silverado 1500 front brakes are squeeking

on disc brakes there is a metal marker on them that when the pads get low on material it will make a squeeling noise to let you know its time to change the pads.. so I would say you are in need of front pads also even though they look good you are getting low.. this marker is designed to let you know its time before you get to metal to metal .. jerry

My 2004 chevy tahoe makes a squeaking noise while driving and now there's brake dust forming on the rims.

If the squeeking is happening over bumps, and is not related to breaking, it could be a bearing in the steering linkage. My tahoe is doing the same thing, and my local garage says it is only a dealer fix. That is why I am searching this site now, is to find out if anyone else is complaining about this. I was told that GM is fully aware of this problem.

Rear end squeeking noises

Check the brake pads . they may need to be replaced. They make that noise to wrn you that it's time to replace them. Replace all pads in front too. It is what is suggested.

'04 Corolla Grinding noise when breaking

Even though there may be some brake pad remaining, sometimes you need to machine or replace the rotors in order to get rid of a noise. Rotors can develop a bad wear pattern that acts against a glazed pad to produce a loud noise even if they are not worn out. Replace the front brakes, pads and rotors.

A lot of noise from the front brake discs

Try changing the type of brake pads you are using. It will make a difference on the noise and all of the dirty brake dust that gets on the rims.
