Brakes questions - squeaking noise, rust, quality.
Hello guys,

Did a 60,000 KM service exactly one month ago.
I changed the front and rear pads + the rear discs, along with other things.

The car brakes fine, but there's a really annoying squeaking noise.
I called the garage and they said that there shouldn't be any squeaking noise at all, even if the discs and pads aren't original.
I'm gonna go there next week, but I wanted to check with you guys first.

1) Is squeaking normal with brand new discs and pads?

2) I have a lot of dust

Rust!
Just picked my 15 plate Astra GTC and came across a few rust spots! Will this be batted back to me as stonechips or is this a common problems. The rust spots are just above the rubber of the windscreen.

GTC Rust
Hi all, I have a 2015 GTC 1.6 CDTI has anyone else had a problem with rust on the roof line between the front windscreen and roof line?
Would this be still covered under warranty?

Have you any rust on your Astra J ?
As I am someone who is the wrong side of 50, I can remember the days when cars would rust quite badly at a relatively early age.
Vauxhalls these days seem to be fairly well protected from rust, but what I'd like to ask is :

Have you had any trouble with rust on your Astra ?
What are any potential problem areas ?
Has anyone had any rustproofing done on their car ?
