Squeaking Brakes Brakes in GOOD shape, BUT they are squeaking. Any quick solutions to eliminate this. I've tried spraying BRAKE QUIET with no success. On last for a week...... Am I doing something wrong on the spray application? Facing the tire, I'm spraying the outside of the brake pad. Allow to dry and test.

    Correction: I'm spraying the rotor NOT brake pad

What kind of brake pads are you using and did you use brake grease on the pad's baking plate. Lubriplate (blue squeeze tube) makes it, et al. Ceramic pads last longer, but have a tendency to squeal a bit more than OEM or HD (sport) pads. Akibono are best ceramic pads on the market, with ATE, Jurid, Textar, and Galfer about equal in performance pads. Ultra high performance pads are made by Brembo, Galfer (Spain), AP (UK) used by GM, and EPC.

When bringing car to a stop using the brakes I hear a squeaking noise I drive a 2007 pontiac vibe

Check to see if the brake pads are low. They might be low enough and the squealers may be touching. Which will make a squeaking noise. If they are not low you may have metallic brake pads that will also make a squeaking noise. If this is the case you can try disc brake quiet. This is a spray that you can get at most auto part stores.
I hope this helps!

Rear brake is squeaking when pressure is applied to brake. How do I fix this problem? Brake pads are ok.

You probably have a little brake dust on the rear brake rotor and pads. I'd get a can of brake cleaner (about 4 bucks) from your local Autozone.

Spray the rotor with a coat of it, but be careful not to get it on the pads, let it dry for a few minutes, and then take the bike for a spin out in some stop and go traffic so you'll have use the brakes.

Hopefully this should clean all the brake dust off really good, and eliminate further squeaking.

Squeaking washing Machine during spin cycle

Hi
Loks that your machine is pretty old and hence the belt has hardened making a squeaking noise.
Good fix is get a new drive belt.
OR
Quick fix is you could put some oil on the drive belt..... it will work for now but not a permenant solution.
Regards

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

Squeaking sound from the front tire

It's sounds like the brakes, Someone might have used the front brake really hard. try spraying the front caliper with a water hose to wash the brake dust from between the pads and the rotor. If that don't work pull the caliper off and see if the pads are glazed over. If they are you can take some fine sand paper and rough them up a little bit.
