Squeaking Brakes Revisited -

So the squeaking brakes are back and the Service advisor keeps stating that it is normal. I've had it pretty much to here with these stupid comments...

More so, the SA keeps stating that the right side mirror can nit be adjusted to drop down in reverse but I've heard/seen otherwise on this forum.

Can I get some advice as to how to attack these two issues?

Regarding the brake squeal, mine squealed quite a bit when it was new and one thing that I noticed that really helped was to keep the wheels/rotors clean. I wash mine just about weekly and take it to a self serve car wash and really clean out the wheels, rotors, and wheel wells with there sprayers. It really made a big difference in them not squealing. Might want to give it a shot.

I don't remember the specifics but there was a post on a few who have done the mirror thing. It is a shame the difference in capabilites between dealerships in terms of there service departments.
