I have an 05 C6, I have done quite a bit of reading on the brakes and I can say that mine squeak A LOT, is there a sure fire way of getting them to stop. Some have advised hard breaking others have said replace with ceramic pads.

Also, have problems shifting from 1^st to 2^nd any advice in that area as well would be appreciated.. thankx

Hi Squeky,

I have a 05 C6 Z51. I had the same problem also with way too much brake dust. The was a service bulletin fot the Z51 that provided for replacing the shoes with a different type. Mine was done under warranty some time ago. Check with your dealer.

Squeaky brakes have been around for 5 years now in the c6.GM had them warrantied for all of about 6 minutes till they realized the scope of the complaints.Then they said "IT'S NORMAL"!!!No more warranty. I fixed mine (05 mn6 z51) this way.I got up to about 50mph and hit the brakes steady and hard till I stopped.I did this 5 or 6 times in a row and the problem went away.No squeaks in my 16000 mile 08 yet.
