    Hey i have a 06 tacoma trd off-road sr5 4x4. Well me and some buddies went on a dirt road and played around. As i was doing so i noticed my front right brake sounded like it had dirt in it. So i went to the car wash and washed it out. No luck so i took it to the house and parked it til the next day. i took the tire off and seen there was dirt behind the dust catcher and in between the pad and rotor so i washed it out good. No more noise until today when im going down the road straight it makes a metal on metal sqeuak? and help?
    Thanks

    How many miles on your truck ? Can you see if there's any pad left ?Maybe the pads are worn out and the squeal is the wear indicter dragging on the rotor.

    Make sure the rotor deflector, debris shield isn't rubbing on the rotor any where. There could be a small stone caught some where rubbing the rotor. I've had that happen to me, took a while to figure it out.

    it was a caliper sticking the pads to the rotor so about 300 dollars later no squeak
