Brakes questions - squeaking noise, rust, quality. |

Hello guys,
Did a 60,000 KM service exactly one month ago.
I changed the front and rear pads + the rear discs, along with other things.
The car brakes fine, but there's a really annoying squeaking noise.
I called the garage and they said that there shouldn't be any squeaking noise at all, even if the discs and pads aren't original.
I'm gonna go there next week, but I wanted to check with you guys first.
1) Is squeaking normal with brand new discs and pads?
2) I have a lot of dust on my alloys, is it related to the quality of the pads?
3) I also have a lot of rust..or yellowish stuff on the rear discs - How normal is that? I saw more then a few cars with polished, silver, out of the box looking discs..nothing like mine. Is there a way to avoid it? Or is it quality related as well?
4) If I would to improve my "braking ability" - Is there a recommended discs/pads company out there in the market? (fitting an Astra J obviously). I heard of REMSA & LUCAS, but I know nothing about them. (Just for the sake of knowledge - Money is no object).
Thanks a lot in advance,
|

just been running kids around tonight and when daughter got in car and I went to start car the yellow light on the dash with the car and lock through it flashed and car wouldn't start...removed key and tried again and started no problem...I know this is the immobilizer but is it doing this because the battery in the key needs changing or is it something completely different??
