My son, where have you been?...haha. Come, follow me to the end of all your woes once and for all... http://www.300cforums.com/forums/srt...g-problem.html

There's only 388 posts to read! The latest is that 40 complete sets have arrived, all spoken for. Actually more than that have been ordered, but 80 sets of rears and 40 sets of fronts arrived. Dave's looking into this. Full instructions on how and where to order are in the thread, along with instructions and pics how to do it yourself. You WILL NOT regret getting these pads. In the meantime, bed your brakes. It may help you for a while. Bedding instructions are there as well. Have a fun read.

Wait a minute. Your car is listed as a 300C in your profile. Are you talking about that car or the SRT8??? I wasn't aware of any squealing problems with the 300C, only the SRT8's.

Thanks Ram, but I do have the 300C, and the damn brakes started squeeling at about 23,000miles. The Dealer checked them and said they still got a lot of meat left to them, they even turned a rotor because it had a hot spot on them, the car was shaking when I applied the brakes, the shaking is still there but not as bad, but the Darn Squeeling is embarrasing.

your rotors are most likely still warped, maybe from water after some hard braking. This happened with my ram truck. You need to get the rotors turned down again thoroughly or buy new rotors. check it out anyway.

I still say try bedding your brakes first. If that doesn't work then maybe turn the rotors. I was a non believer of bedding some time ago, but it really does work.
