My disc brakes in my vanagons always squeaked... well, not always, but frequently. And even after brake jobs too. I always thought it was just dust that got in them. Seemed to come and go as I recall. My new 89 syncro westy (three months new to me) does not squeak. Yet.

Matt; I doubt if they will do anything for a squeak since it would be above and beyond the call of get-em-in-get-em-out economics. You would be better off trying to fix it yourself.
