I found that my squek when I was accelerating at lights after a stop was coming from the left rear wheel, and is brake realted ( i think). The squek only occurs at slow speeds when my foot is off the brake, as soon as I apply pressure to the brake pedal, the sound stops. My question is, is it caused by dust between the pad and rotor? The pads on the rear are good but I have a set of extra rears, should I change them to get rid of the noise? Any help, is as always appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

Pop them off and put anti squeal on the back.

First I would try slamming on the brakes to seat them and remove the glazing and cleaning the area with a sqirt of brake cleaner.

Personally I could not care less if my brakes sqeaks.
