How can i get the squeak to stop from my brakes even if the break pads were changed recently? ?

Just bought a car dude said he changed the break pads last july, they squeak annoys the hell out of me. The car also shakes just a little while driving at 50-60mph its a 2004 honda accord coupe ...any suggestions?How can i get the squeak to stop from my brakes even if the break pads were changed recently? ?
Ok. Take this for a old time mechanic. Take the car to the car wash, and wash the hell out of the wheels.

What makes it squeak is the powder from the old breaks.

It will cost you maby 1.50 or less.How can i get the squeak to stop from my brakes even if the break pads were changed recently? ?
Verify that the pads are still usable and not worn.

Your front tires need to be balanced to get rid of the slight shake.
have the rotors cut and the tires balance
shaking from out of balance tires.



to quiet the brakes, you need remove the pad and put some 'quiet brake pad lube' on the back of the pads and reinstall.



quiet brake lube can be pickup at auto parts store.
the rotors need to be turned to get rid of the shake it would also take care of the squeak, if you don't want to have them turned you can get anti-squeak compound at the auto parts store that you put on the pads between the pads and caliper its like a high temp silicone the absorbs the vibration.
check pads and rotors. the shake is from unbalanced or bad tires. if your tires look good, get them balanced.
