So did a full brake job about 25k miles ago incluidng pads, rotors, appropriate hardware and cleaning/regreasing pins with MC silicone grease. At that time I used Wagner TQ ceramic pads with AAP Frontline rotors. So far everything is pretty much great. Wearing well, smooth and powerful brakes. Mostly quiet, too! In fact, up until about this summer they were dead silent. What I have noticed in the last couple thousand miles is the first few moments of brake usage is that they will squeal or squeak. Seems to stop after a few moments of brake use and doesn't come back.
My concern is that its due to operating temp and may become more common when the weather turns. I've heard some reviews of the TQ's complain about noise. Until now mine were perfect. Any thoughts on easy fixes? Brakes are strong and smooth with no noises under heavy braking. Or light braking. Just when starting out first thing. BTW, this is on my F150.
