Mazda2 brake squeal

[CorrectHorseBattery]

Had an annoying squeaking sound from my Mazda2's front breaks so I've in the last week had the discs and pads changed.

The old pads/discs squeaked when I braked, the new ones squeal as soon as the car starts moving, up to around 25mph when the sound goes away. At a stop the noise also goes away.

Is this just the pads bedding in or should I take the car back in (I've taken it in about five times and I'm starting to get fed up)?

Many thanks.

Ive the exact same issue atm on my Hyundai coupe. My mechanic looking over it again on Tuesday.

The issue for myself got worse after fitting new disks and pad. We suspect it to be the Brake caliper slider bins being stuck and not releasing causing excessive pad wear on one side etc. My squeak goes away when any force to the brake is applied

As above.

There shouldn't be any squealing even while 'bedding in'. Unless you have your foot on the brake the pads shouldn't have enough contact to be making any noise.

Alright, so back to Mazda then, ffs.

Oddly it doesn't do it at all in reverse?

Caliper sticking? I have similar symptoms, on two calipers, definitely stuck in my case.

I had that happening on my Mazda 2 when breaking at low speeds, guy at garage said there was absolutely no grease on the pads so he chucked some on and haven't had it happen since. It appears to be optional to add grease so YMMV.
