So I started hearing the usual Civic X brake squeal from my driver's side front wheel again. I took this into the dealer before and they fixed it by replacing the clip/retainer or whatever, pictured. That was about 10 months ago. Well, as I was driving last night I heard it coming on during my left turns just like last time.
Today it got louder so I thought, I'm at 51k so maybe I need brakes so I decided to check them out and there's still plenty of beef on the pad (at least the outside pad) so I'm assuming it's the aforementioned clip/retainer. It kinda looks like it might be rubbing on the outer edge of the rotor if you look closely at the pic attached.
Has anyone come up with a fix for this? Is it inevitable? Any quick fixes? I really don't want to take my brakes apart lol
