One of your rotors might be warping, get them fixed as soon as you can.

The squeek when driving can be caused by metallic or very cheap pads, which can squeeke a lot more then a normal organic or ceramic pad. Also, if the brakes are REAL low, there is a metal tab built into the brake bad. It's a wear indicator and will cause a high pitch squeel when the pads get so far down that it makes contact with the rotor. It's saying TIME FOR A BRAKE JOB.

get the car in the air and spin each wheel - you should find the issue. it could be something underlying like a dragging caliper or bad slide pin, which can cause other issues. taking a look at it is the best bet though. drums can get a little funky when there is a bunch of dust in there and make noise.

good luck with it.

OT - Nick I gotta go find your thread and see how you made out.

I would probably have to say your brakes are no good. don't over look your wheel bearings though. Since you are going to do your brakes I suggest you replace your wheel bearings and (seals obviously), just for the sake of peace of mind.
