just replaced my pads to the Akebono ACT707 Ceramic Brake Pads and had the rotors resurfaced and there's a sequel randomly and was told by a few people that if i do some hard braking 300 miles after the pads settle in that it'll go away, probably some metal or dust in there, is this true?

Jack up the front then rear and spin each wheel. See if the pads are dragging and slowing the wheel down. If the caliper pins are not lubed properly or the anti-squeal shims, they can bind the pads.

This is good lube to use on pins and shims:

When you put in new pads and rotors, there is a way to break them in and seat them together. Various techniques but one I use is to do about 10 braking slow-downs, break firmly at 60 until you get to 40 then let off. Run a 1/2 mile to a mile to dissipate heat and repeat. Do this about 10 times. There are other ways but this is an acceptable way. Make sure you don't get any grease on pads or the rotors. I clean mine with windex or similar just before buttoning everything up.

i only did the fronts. they randomly squeak here and there, i've out 900 miles on the pads already..

Did you use brake-specific grease (Permatex purple, Sil-Glyde, etc.) on the pins and back of the pads?

Alexbenz

no idea, the shop i took it to said they greased them up

I would go back and re-visit post #2. Properly installed brakes don't squeak, especially new Akebono pads and properly resurfaced rotors. And there shouldn't be "some metal or dust in there" - that's what properly installing avoids.
