Frustrating front brake noise that won’t go away

[vinooooo93]

Hi all,

I’ve had this problem for almost 3 years now where I hear a rhythmic front brake squeak usually when decelerating slowly anywhere between 10km/h to a full stop. I especially hear it when the car is going downhill but not so much up hill. The noise isn’t as noticeable if I brake much harder than usual. It is driving me insane. A few months ago, I replaced both the front rotors and brake pads (good quality ones) with proper lubrication and cleaned up any rust/debris - this worked for a couple of weeks and then the noise came back again. Oddly enough, I can hear it very clearly when I’m inside the car but when I pull down the window to check again, the noise doesn’t seem to be as prominent. Has anyone ever experienced the same issue? I have searched high and low on forums and on YouTube but can’t find a solution. Currently, I have lots of Brake pad material and rotors have very minor ridges.

I also have a rear drum brake squeak but I’m sure I’ll be able to fix that with re lubricating but it is just this front brake noise that’s annoying the heck out of me :(
