I noticed that first thing in the morning when i start my car and the whole car itself is cold and hasnt been moving yet....at the back right of the car i hear this squeaking noise tahts constant with the moving of the car. If the car is stopped, or i apply the brakes, i dont hear anything....once ive been moving for a bit, it stops as well. I just wanted to know if you guys had any ideas about what this could be. its pretty noticeable from inside the car with all my windows shut.....any info would be helpful. thanks in advance.....
sounds like your caliper is geting stuck. might have a bent slide pin. when was the last time you did the brakes ?

well, i just got the car in july, and i havent done the brakes yet. The car has 73k on it now...so i guess its about time. Also, i noticed that for my brakes to work the best, i have to actually double pump the brake pedal in order for the pedal to become harder to push on. A single pump is a mushier pedal, and also not as useful at stopping the car. Maybe i need new pads too and the lines bled. Any ideas??? Thanks again.

Definately try bleeding the brakes...doubt the rear pads need changing unless something drastic happened back there...at 120,000 miles, the rears on mine still had more than 50% left on them. Suffice it to say the rear brakes on our cars don't do a helluva lot. The only reason I changed them is I changed the rotors and need front pads, so I got same rear pads as front. KVR's RULE!!!
NX's are SUPPOSED to be white, aren't they? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense to call it an evil egg! :)

Yeah, i think ill have that done then...it feels like theres air in my system anyway *** the brake pedal feels mushy when first pressed, i usually have to double press it to get a solid feel out of the brake pedal. thanks for the info! :)
