    Any help appreciated, 14 GX460. Have a chirping front the right front while moving and while braking. Just chirps less while not braking.

    Had the brakes taken apart and cleaned chirp gone, 4 weeks later chirp re appears just not quite as loud.

    Brake pads were new approximately 8000 miles ago, rotors as well.

    At a loss on what's causing it and how a cleaning fixed it but back shortly after. No rocks or debris in brakes.

    Who is doing the work? Maybe confirm they greased the back of the pad and bent the tab over when setting it in the caliper.

    Initial replacement was the lexus dealer right before we bought it. 2nd time was a trusted shop, since I had an arm in a sling.

    Guessmaybe just pull the wheel and see what if anything is up. They disassembled cleaned and put back together and was good for about a month then back to the chirp. Pads and rotor did not have any abnormal wear.

    The left front has been quite.
