I removed the brake pads on the left side of my car. They look
good.
I went to Autozone and got another opinion.
The guy at the zone said I don't need new pads. Mine are just
glazed. Lightly scuff them and they will work. I told him if
they still squeak I'll just turn the radio up. I took 150g
sandpaper, put the sandpaper in flat metal and lightly moved the
pad across the paper 2x. Removed the shine and no more
squeaking.
Never had pads squeak in the past just because they were glazed.
In the past if the pads were talking, the wear bar was rubbing
on the rotor.
Rotors look like new. Mission accomplished!
Pads had more than half the life left in them at 55k.
