My 85 has squeaked off and on since I = bought it.
 
 I put new pads in. No good.  = Put no-squeal spray the back of the pads then took it off when it did no good.
 
I had the rotors turned. Now instead of = a high spot squeak now and then, it will squeak the whole turn of the wheel now and = then.
 
Mine mainly does it after it has been = braked hard for a while, like driving through stop and go traffic on a hot = day.
 
I have the anti-squeal shims in.  = The calipers are new.
 
It's not bad enough for me to look at = the master cylinder. I was wondering if it is keeping too much residual pressure on = the brakes.

Hey list, =
Lately my front disc's have been squealing like stuck pigs. I pulled the =
wheels to check out the pads and they're fine. Is it just dust and I need to =
clean the rotor?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
