Need to know what types of rotors and pads you have, and how long they've been there for starters. I'll move this to mechanical and maintenance when I get things fixed down there.

If there'* plenty of pad left, the problem is that the pads basically vibrate at a very high frequency against the caliper piston and that is the squeal or squeak that you hear. The back of the pad is the culprit. Just go to your nearest auto parts dealer and ask for brake pad "goop"...
