    Brake Squeak

    A month ago I replaced my rotors and pads (with Ceramic), and when I have been driving awhile and brakes get hot they squeak like the wear-bar is there. Any ideas why? Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks.

    Did you properly bed the brakes twice to begin with or have you tried bedding them again?

    I have bedded them twice. It is only the right front doing it. I know the wire bar the runs across is somehow missing (prolly fell off), would that make a huge difference? And in order for this to happen it has to be a really hot rotor.

    It's best to have all of the components so at least that could be ruled out as the culprit.

    Well I guess I'll have to order that part in to see if that helps. Thanks for the help.
