Re: brake pads question..

Good question, I forgot this part of the story. I don't know if they were turned when those pads first went in, but I had them turned since (at the suggestion of a different mechanic who was doing an alignment or something else at the time.) After being turned, they were quiet for a week or so and then the squeaking came back, which is why I'm convinced that the pads are either too cheap or are inappropriate.

And now I'm worried that autozone hasn't given me the right replacement/better pads to put in there.
