Brakes squeaking

I've noticed this issue after my last three drives, all around 15-20 miles. At the end of the drive, the brakes are squeaking...pretty loud, sounds like from the front. They squeak in reverse as well, but it seems louder going forward. I'll park, then drive again a few hours later and the brakes are quiet at first. In the middle of the drive, I don't hear the squeaking, or maybe it's not noticble with speed. But as I approach my destination, driving slower, the squeaks are back. So I guess they come as the brakes are hot.


I'm running the tundra front brakes, only about 15,000 miles old. Any ideas?

could be something stuck in between the pads/rotors? or perhaps one of the retaining clips are making contact? i'd pull em off, give em both a good scuff, and maybe bevel the pad edges (if they arent already)...
