i am kind in a bad mood because my brakes killing me
ok i bought a car everything is fine
it was sitting for like 3-4 months
then i drove it for the first day brakes were sqealling BAD!! found out its rear right!
went to shop found out that those metal shims are missing! installed them thought i fixed a problem no noise appears ok turned the rotors and still there is a squeek not all the time but one time squeal other dont
i dont know what to do! mechanic says its something with whole assembly not in pads or rotors
and when i try to brake only with hand brake i still hear noise!

first off what brand of pads are you running? second I have found that taking the rears apart and cleaning everything often helps with weird noises also some "pad grease" on the back of the pads and shims helps too.

*MOST* aftermarket pads squeal. I replaced mine with OEM pads and it only squeals occasionally (usually when I need to take everything down and clean them again)

I dont see any reason for concern on the tranny. The shift points are based off engine load/throttle postion and the computer "saw" fit for it to be in another gear.
