You might have run over Robin Sunpower! Seriously - it could be a small stone stuck in between something or your handbrake not fully disengaging. The weather might be a cause in some way. Not much use I'm afraid. |

It is quite normal for such a large car's brakes to groan under slow manouvering, however if it is a high pitch squeal there could well be a piece of grit wedged in the caliper face, it will work itself out within a week's use. |

Here is what my dealer did to stop the squeak on my brakes, according to the service invoice: "Checked and found excessive brake dust on calipers. Removed excess brake dust". The squeak is gone. |
