Hey everyone,
In Toronto, Canada. I just changed my rotors and brake pads on my Infiniti Q50 sport. This is what I got: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8264480&cc=3300364&jsn=10388
The pads: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8264480&cc=3300364&jsn=10388

Now, every time I start my car after it's been sitting there for a while (e.g. overnight of more than 10-20 mins), it makes this awful, extremely loud squeal when I apply the brakes as I, say as I'm backing out of my driveway. And I think it's coming from the back pads. After a few brakes and when the car gets going, the noise drops considerably. Sometimes it's still there but very faint, sometime it's gone completely.
I called the mechanic that installed it and he said maybe it's because they're cheap non-ceramic brake pads. Well, the pads I bought are ceramic. Not sure if they're cheap in quality or not.
What should I do? What's the problem, you reckon?
