Squealing brakes
When setting off from being parked, my brakes are squealing. Continuous squealing from rear for a start, then after half a mile or so, only when brakes are applied. Vehicle has only just clocked up 10,000 miles.
Are the brakes self-adjusting, or do I need to back them off a bit? Handbrake adjustment?

Could also be grit / stone stuck in the wheel somewhere.
Happened to me last week. Hunted down a jet wash and the rather nice van driver cleaning his white (well brownish) van let me clean off the wheel. All well so back on my 600 mile journey
EPB sounds most likely if its coming from the rear though.
