Default Squeaking sound from brake even without apply brake. Is my caliper stuck?....

When I am at low speed and next to a wall or car, I can heard the squeaking sound (bounce back from the wall or car). Should I take out the caliper and rebuilt it? I already bleed the brake.

Default Your pad (pads) are sticking. Some of that pad glue stuff will work....

I had the same problem with Stoptech's on my old A4. I used some orange pad glue (not sure of the name) and it worked great. The glue basically holds the pad to the piston tightly...so it doesnt rest on the rotor.
