86.5 and 87 symptoms

is it possible by any chance that the squeaky noise showed up AFTER you did your brakes? its possible either the wear indicators were not installed properly or the anti-squeal shims are in there funny and squeaking against the rotor.

This is gonna sound odd, but can you describe the squeak a little better? high or low pitched? does it seem to change tempo based on wheel movement (speed) or engine (RPM) Is there a grinding (like metal on metal being chewwed up)component to the sound? or is it more of just a nails on the chaulkboard squeak?

You mentioned it changed when you step on the brakes. Does the sound go from like a "squeak ...squeak... squeak" to a "SQUEEEEEEL" or some other pitch change?

not being there to hear it, this kind of information can help narrow it down.
