"I have an 83 Toyota 4 speed 22r truck/camper. Approximately 3000 miles ago had brakes put in. Drove cross country and they were wonderful. Last few months city driving (errands) and a couple camping trips, everything great.
Last week or so. When I go out to drive it, I get to the stop sign at the corner (about 50 yards away) and step on the brake and hear squeeking. After that 50 yard run, everything is fine, all day it never squeeks again even if I let it sit and drive it hours later, it's fine! And the brakes work fine."
I flushed them out with water-hose as suggested and no luck. I called a very reliable shop that I used before and they told me this "sounds normal".
Could that be true? Gosh in 8 years I never had this before so I am wondering why it's normal???
I suspect (my suspicious mind...haha) they don't want to do the work because it would result in a minor charge. My shop record shows usually I just get an oil change and there's not a heck of a lot of profit in that.
Thanks
