I ussually hear it when I been driving the car for about and hour straight, by this time the car is hot enough. When ever I press on the brake I makes a weird noise. When I bought the car it made the same noise but I thought it was the brakes. And well it needed brakes so I put in some new pads. I checked everything. There are no leaks no dragging. There are no loose obects.I usually hear this noise when im comming to a full stop or when im slowing down to park.

Check the pads and shoes. If the pads are in good shape, pull the calipers and spray the pads with a brake cleaning solvent. Do the same for the rears.

Thanx. I forgoot to mention that the noise is on the back near the wheels. And the pads are new. And clean I made sure they where clean before I installed them.I took em out and they are evenly wearing out. Could this be a noise from the suspension system?

I forgot to mention that when the car is hot enough. Or better yet when the brake discs are hot enough it starts making the noise. But not only when I press on the brakes. Sometimes its when im making a sloww turn. When im turning the wheel and pressing on the brakes at a sloww speed. Thats when it makes the noise.
