Sounds exactly the same as mine.
I no longer press the brakes slowly....I give it a quick firm press to avoid the damn things squeaking....and then brake slowly so it doesn't grumble....its a very awkward thing. I've tried holding the brakes and accelerating, braking hard, driving downhill braking as suggested a few places to rid of squeaking, but nothing works.
Anybody here have a successful set of rotors + pads that don't squeak or grumble?
