I grab my stuff from NAPA.
ok ill give that a shot. i do go really easy on the brakes but ive only had the car for the past ~4000 miles so i dont know how the previous owner treated it.

ok i may try that this weekend. like i said the dealer said the brakes were good but i dont know to what extent i would trust a dealer. but it seems as if the squeeking is coming from the front passenger side wheel.
