whats goin on guys, ive been gone for a while life went from completely crap to the best its ever been in the past few months... but im back probably for good this time.

alright so i know i posted this months ago bout how my brakes were screeching horribly and i know a lot of you were having the same issues. I'd bring it in they would tell me that it was "normal". so ive had the V for just over a year now and it was going on for a good 6 month period, i brought it in 5 times, finally on the 6th time they check it and say the rear brakes just needed to be cleaned, they should be fine now, this was 2 days ago. it was working great i was shocked thinking this was the only problem, not to get too excited cause it back to doing it and even worse now. has ANYONE figured out what the hell is causing this, i blare my music just to avoid hearing the horrendous screeching.

Could it be certain cars during production had different pads or shoes installed,I know a person who has over 35k on his, and no screeching ever.

Like mine, for instance - over 43k and never a sound.

there right some brake noise is normal. caused by dust,debri getting stuck between the pads and rotors, etc. But most of the time its THE DRIVER if you speed from light to light making alot of hard braking stops the rotors warp from heat.
