I got all four brake pads changed about a week ago and I started noticing this squeak coming from the driver side (either front or rear). After about 20 min of driving I hear squeak - pause - squeak - pause when I'm doing around 5 - 25 km/h. The squeak - pause - squeak - pause gets faster as I speed up and around 40 km/h, I can't hear it anymore (probably because squeak - pause - squeak - pause is too fast to hear it).

I'm taking it to the garage tomorrow to have the guy check it out again but I want to ask what you guys think before. I could suggest him to take a look at a particular part according to what you guys say.

Thank you.

Could just be the pads bedding in and rubbing a little, could be the disk is maybe warped a little so making contact, not making contact (and so on). Could be no problem at all.
