Default 2004 EX-L V6 squeaks brake pads just replaced

I always get those few car squeaks in the morning when backing out, what is causing the squeaking noise?
- Brake pads just replaced
- How much $ to fix it?

Under right atmospheric conditions, the rotors flash rust overnight setting up ideal conditions for a brake squeal. Once flash rust is rubbed off squeal stops. Most disc brakes squeal occasionally. Somewhat the nature of the beast.

good luck

- Brake pads just replaced
did you replace frt+ rear pads?? if not, chk the ones that you did not replace ,for wear .Did you use factory Honda pads?? aftermarket pads have a tendency to make a bit of noise ,,,. if you relaced frt+ rears,used Honda pads ,, you might have to resurface the rotors ..

I agree with Texas Honda,

In humid conditions, even Genuine Honda brake pads can make noise on the inital brake applications. *Especially if the car was parked for several hours prior.

Hope your new brake pads are not aftermarket. For quiet brakes and less tendency for rotor warpage, always use Genuine Honda brake pads and the moly grease supplied.
