screeching? where? front or rear?

Screeching? Metal to metal contact would make that noise. Put the suspected side up on jacks, rotate the wheels and identify which specific wheel is making the noise. Also, some new brake pads will squeel the first few miles. But if its the rotors, you may have to have them sanded down or be replaced. Good luck

It might be as simple as cleaning your brakes.. I hope you did clean the brakes and bed them before making any frequent stops.

Did you installed original parts? It happened to me also when i used replacement brake pads. Pinalitan ko din kagad nang umingay sya.

That's why. Better change to original or live with the screeching sounds.

Brakes efficiency are very important. If you lose gas, oil, water, your car would just stop. But if you lose your brakes you would not stop. If I were you I would not compromise safety.
