Brake query

[JDH]

MY15 DB9GT Volante 6500 miles with intermittent squeaky breaks.
Any ideas why this might be?

Does it have aftermarket pads in it?

If so some makes don't have the anti squeal coating on the backs of them...

Other than that I would take it apart and take them out and see what may be causing it - in theory it should be on original pads at 6500 miles - so maybe a lazy caliper or similar?

Possibly not relevant to your car, being newer, but might be of interest.

Sometimes they just need bedding in properly from time to time, especially if you dont use it so often, or dont use the brakes hard.

The bedding in procedure may be in the owners manual, but similar to this from Pagid (OE supplier) https://pagid.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Beddi...

The ceramic discs on my db9 get squeaky after a while. Rinse gently with water and allow to dry solves it. Think it must be a build up of material between the surfaces from use.
