I have 8000K miles on my 8, and the front driver side brakes are making squeaking noise. This only happens when you press on brakes. Anyone having similar problems with brakes?


Thanks

Near the top of this webpage there is a bar with several options. One of them is search. Search "squeaking brakes". You will find a ton of threads on this matter.

Smartass comment aside , welcome to the boards, and there is a TSB out on it I believe. Bring it back to the dealer and they will replace them under warranty. Mine did no questions asked.

Yeah, I have 5000 on the tach and I took the car in for service. The dealership replaced the front brake pads with new updated ones under warrenty with no problems and also cleaned my car :D .

Good luck

I have an 05. Squeal started at 7k miles.
Dealer told me I had the new pads already and blamed it on the cold weather.
The squeal got so bad, I stopped driving my car. Yes it was that bad.
Went back to dealer.. more BS..
I just upgraded to new rotors, pads and lines.
Fighting with the dealer and Mazda was not worth my time.
Now I am thrilled. Zero noise and amazing stops.
Braided lines make a huge difference.
