Klaus,
In my need for free time (10 yr. old) while my car was getting inspected yesterday the mechanic called to tell me that my front rotors had a huge lip near the outside edge. My complaint to him was that my front brakes have been squealing fro some time whenever I come to a slow stop.
He greased all the moving parts, replaced with new rotors and re-installed the old brake pads that still had a lot of life left.
As I drove the car away, the front brakes are still squealing like a pig.
I will be taking the car back to him on Monday but what if anything is my underlying problem here?
Should I have replaced the pads too?
