A year ago (5,000 miles ago) I had my brake pads and discs replaced on my Vauxhall Astra. A few months after that I noticed a scretching noise coming from the brakes when I apply light pressure, especially when I'm coming to a stop. The noise doesn't happen when I start a journey, but after stopping 3 or 4 times the noises starts and happens everytime I brake until my next journey when this process happens again. If I brake harder the noise goes away. People have suggested that it could be dirt / dust on my pads causing friction or just cheap pads!
Any ideas, as this has been driving me mad for months!
