Q: new brakes squeak while moving, but noise stops when applying breaking pressure
Had new disk brakes installed, after about 100 miles and abut two years (car does not drive in winter) heard a loud squeaking noise that occurs after driving car for about 5 minutes. When the brakes are applied the noise stops. Sometimes noise comes back when i take my foot off the brake, sometimes noise does not come back. i looked at the brake pads and there seems to be plenty of material. Also the rotters are smooth and not rusty.
My car has an automatic transmission.
