my wife's '06 5 Touring has this nasty habit of squealing as she backs out of the driveway every morning. she utterly HATES it and I must say, it's quite annoying. it's done it since day one of having it (purchased in Feb of this year & it only has 50K on it). it only happens in reverse after...

My dad's Mazda Protege vibrates when braking. No problems while accelerating and the brakes are fine. Pads and rotors. I am thinking bearings but I would suspect that it would grind or vibrate all the time or when turning but it only happens when your braking. Any ideas on where I should start...
