Do you know what's odd? I now have this really ugly creaking noise when I come off the brakes now after I just changed them. Kinda like how it sounds when your brakes are wet. Normally this is a quick thing but this can actually be drawn out and you can even brake in a nice sweet spot where all I can hear is that ugly noise. I realize this is probably my brake pad touching the rotor and not completely coming off the surface.

Should I do a brake fluid flush and see if that helps anything? I still haven't done that. My braking is still good, it's just an annoying noise now.

Thanks. Going to do the job now. Also going to change the brake fluid now since I didn't do that before either.
I changed the brake fluid and also put in those return springs on the front brake and it feels better. My brake pedal isn't as squishy and I did a test emergency brake at 35 mph and it was very good! I'm happy with my brakes ah!

Surprising sometimes what a couple of springs can make...lol

I replaced my REAR brake pads and rotors this morning, I went by Honda service manual, I removed the EPB actuator, it went very well. I did not disconnect the connector from the EPB actuator.

Aw we should have asked you to take some pictures on your job. Great to know you did that though!
