Had the disc brakes changed on the car - there is now a creaking noise that happens when the car gets to a standstill. Is this anything to wory about or do the brakes need time to "bed" in?

Mark. I don't know what model of Avensis you have, but mine used to squeal only as the car came to a standstill. The fix was a thin plastic shim installed between the brake pad and caliper. The shims are light blue in colour.
