Was it raining/wet/extremely humid yesterday?

I have noticed that my clutch squeeks when it is damp.

I noticed my clutch starts to squeak/creak after I release it despite the conditions.

I just had a squeak from the back wheel and it was my rear pad squeeler.

Replaced pads and good to go.

i have stock coilovers. my squeak seems to me coming from the back of my car. i was thinking of taking it to the honda dealership, but kinda afraid of what they might charge. can it be something wrong with something in the rear wheels??

I have 63K. And before it gets down low it will squeak first, then start to grind after it wears down more.


Good Luck

Your brakes shouldn't be squeeking when the brake pedal is not depressed.

The brake squealer will squeak without the brake depressed if it's worn down where the squealer touches randomly. Pads never wear even. The driver side rear was fine, it was just the passenger side. When you looked at the squealer it was only touching randomly on the right side of the squealer and a little on the left.
