Squeaking Akebonos

Hey guys. I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before me but I'm having a squeaking issue with my Akebonos. I've been to two different dealerships and a few different break specialist and no one can tell me what the issue is. I mean if the dealership doesn't even know am I lost in hope? Has anyone had this issue or heard of it? Please help.

More info, please. Squeak when you press the brake pedal? Squeak when you release the brake pedal? Squeak as you're slowing down while on the brakes? Squeak that increases in frequency in relation to speed?

I have the non-sport brakes in my Coupe. Installed Akebono on both front and rear. My brakes squeak as well, especially when I pull the car out of the garage in reverse. Once warmed up, they are fine. But its always the initial braking in reverse.

I read somewhere that when they switched from Akebono to Centric pads/rotors, the noise went away. I've got my brakes (Centric) ready to install so I'll try to update this thread once I do the install.
