5yrs @ 11,000 miles = 183.3 miles a month.
Say we never changed the brake fluid. Say this crystal forms under the quad-seal and jams the caliper barrel from pulling back square, being there is gunk under the rubber seal.
Since water is heaver than oil, you bubble the oil and in that bubble is water. So you boil the water. It turns to vapor drop. Sinks to the bottom and can displace the oil under the quad seal.
The quad has to square back into that machined cutout. With the white powder still in the groove, you keep cleaning that hardened residue out of the groove so the quad seal can wrinkle forward and press the pad on the disc. Then you release the pressure behind the piston, the quad seal goes back to memory along with the oil working the opposite direction adding the piston to move away from the pad so it does not squeak like it is doing now.
So the question is... Have you ever changed the brake fluid more than once every 2 years, we check the service history for brake checking the squeak to set in. That is my guess we neglect to change the brake fluid and now it needs a cleaning.
OK, say we replaced a tire and the brake is dragging we have the wheel out of line so the forks are binding. No? I didn't think so, because you did not mention anything about changing a tire say a few years back, things are out of line, right? Therefore, I am again thinking; dirty caliper machined groove contamination brings on the squeak.
