Some days I wonder how folks generate sufficient brain power to maintain a pulse.

Sorry about that I did not mean to word it in that way. I did not mean for you all to take it as to me saying lube on the pads.

The brainpower was not a personal attack. It was a generalistic observation about "people".

Hey, my left turn signal blink's very slowly, where do I pick up this signal fluid at? My local auto parts store does not carry it. And I think I am low.

Dear Mods,

It is apparent that priscilla has talked himself into a corner and must now threaten to "put a boot in my ***". You may as well close this thread, as it is pointless.

Dear Priscilla,
You came into this thread with the most outrageous assumptions about your brakes, and then would not listen to people trying to set you straight. This is the Tech Garage. If you wish to bullshit, then go to the Lounge. If you indeed need help, then listen to the answers to your questions.

What!! Look at my first post and tell me that I just wanted to start some ****. I wanted to help, I always do! I was just saying that I had a similar problem with my car (squeeking) then it turned out I was low on brake fluid and u can say what you want about me but that is the truth!

No notifications, email changed, still nuttin. Meh.

Had brake TSB done, bedded in properly, squeal back immediately, dealer cleaned pads, bedded again, squeal ever present --- and so bad had to put it in my sig.

I can handle the no notifications! The squeal on the other hand will drive me to the loony bin!!!

I've had the pads replaced under TSB. I am stubborn enough NOT to go buy other pads at MY expense when the Mazda pads are inferior. Have you seen how many threads there are on brake squeal??? All of this and still, no answer. It's not your fault, it's Mazda's. I'm praying Zoom's "alluding" to a solution in the future will help.

I've tried everything except Squeal Stop and shims. I've resorted to braking hard, but this is impractical when driving in an urban area with tailgaters. I don't want to get rearended just to alleviate the $%^&ing squeal. :: breathe :: sorry, this situation gets me upset...

Have you tried tried a yahoo, gMail, or hotmail account? They seem to work OK, as far as I've heard. Comcast and a few others don't seem to receive notifications however.
