So my front driver side brake indicator keeps squeeling but my brakes are brand new, I think its a warped rotor, the squeling is random. It does it in town whenever it feels like it, never in speeds above 35 though. Its not wheel bearing, im 100% sure its my brake indicator, any ideas?

Check the edges of the rotor. If they are curved too much due to wear, it suld cause the squealing noise. Another possible cause would be the brake backing plate brushing against the rotor. If the backing platte is too close, use a screwdriver to push it away from rotor to resolve problem.
