Hiya folks.
I seem to have developed a squeak when braking. I checked the wheels for heat, and noticed that the offside is slightly warmer than the near side, but only slightly. Something to be concerned about I assume? Back to the dealer? And yes, I tried a search š

Yes we have had noisy brakes. first started when we used caravan after it's 1st service in April 2018 Have to say noise wasn't every time we slowed down or braked and brakes didn't seem to be binding as Car performance was fine. .
Mentioned brake noise to the Approved Fitter who carried out the 2nd Service, He was well aware of problem comment was cheap shoes being used. Brake drums and Shoes were cleaned during service. Since 2nd service and 300 plus miles the brakes have not been noisy. So far So Good but time and mileage will tell.
I think as long as the Brakes pull off when you move off things should be o k. This depends on the over run mechanism etc operating correctly.
Oh! I have to say. When Caravan is not in use for some time I Chock the wheels and leave the handbrake off. So the linkages and Springs etc are not stressed.
