WTF?!

[staticorex]

So the other day the front brakes on my GTO started to squeal. I have a BBK which will be installed in three weeks so replacing the pads now would be a waste of money I don't have. But the squealing got worse and worse and worse to the point I was expecting to be pulled over for noise.

I take off the brake pads and inspect them. They are cracked up a bit but otherwise fine. I sand them down a bit and put them back on. Squealing continues. So finally I gave in and ordered new pads.

Late last night I decide to wash my car which badly needed it. This morning I get in the car and the brakes squeal as normal. I drive to the parts store, pick up the new pads and leave.

As I'm driving away from the parts store, new brake pads on my passenger seat, I notice something. NO F***ING SQUEALING! WTF?! for three weeks theses things hurt my ears they're squealing so loud and as soon as I have new pads in my hand they stop.

I know this is a Yaris forum but I needed to rant and no one hangs out on the LS2 forums. Thanks for reading and if you have any idea how washing a car can stop brakes from squealing please chime in.
