I got a 96 civic ex..
The front passenger side wheel is makeing a squeeking noise. Also the dash brake light comes on during hard acceleration. I pulled the wheel off and when i spun the hub it was coming from the front passenger side calliper/brake. It looks like it isn't fully disengaging? I topped off the brake fluid and pumped it a bit but still the same thing.
I figure i should change out the brakes (wanna upgrade a bit anyway) but what would be causeing this and how bad do you think it is to continue driving like that, assuming it isn't fully disengaging from the rotor. also when i brake the squeek goes away.

thanks in advance

the sliders probably sticking and need greased

 

figured the light was un-related...

slider? greasing? please explain a bit.. never touched my brakes before..

 

on the top and bottom of the caliper ther are 2 bolt heads with a rubber accordian on it. that is the sliders. pull rubber back and apply grease
