when slowing down at a corner or for a stop and when getting ready to brake to a stop, there is a discernable, low "yelping' noise that takes place to the stop- only happens under the conditions listed above, don't hear it any other times

Hi there,

This may be a glazing problem on the pads and rotors, ii would have this checked, glazing is a result of resins in the pads not burning off, normally due to poor quality high resign pads or excessive slow stop start driving.
