Squeaky brakes?
« on: 01 February 2008, 20:28 »
My GTI has suddenly developed squeaking noises when braking at slow speeds ( 20 - 0 mph ) . My car is a 2007 GTI with 6500 miles on the clock.  Is this a problem?

Mine do the same!  Could be glazing of the pads, perhaps due to too much light braking?

Yeah sounds like light breaking has glazed the pads - try to find an empty car park and 10 minutes of heavy break use should sort them out and improve the breaking no end
