Brakes squeak at low speeds. Is this normal or acceptable? I had this problem on an older car, but didn't expect it on a new car.

Look, my friend. I ve driven 8 cars in my life time. Some from brand new, and some second hand. Just because brakes "squeak" there is no need for a cause for alarm. Most of the time you have to "bed" them in, or its how the brake pads come into contact with the brake discs.

Here is a link to show what the common causes on brakes pads/disc squeaks. lol

I know about squeaky brakes as I have a bike, and the same thing applies. It depends on the "angle of the dangle" :rolleyes: er I mean how the pads sit in contact with the discs.

Mine did this for the first few weeks when i got my new Aygo.

After bedding them in they were fine, and have been since. (going on 8 months now)
