I don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet b/c I haven't read down thread, but
I had this same problem up until last week when i finally fixed mine. Take
the rear wheels off of the car, look at the pins that hold the pads in the
calipers. Are there any springs pushing the pads apart and away from the rotors on
those pins? If there are not, this could be your problem. The idea is that
your pads are actually wobbling in the calipers, contacting the rotors with the
faster revolutions, and with a lack of silencing shims, squealing in a pulsing
pattern, until you hit the brakes. When you hit the brakes it silences the
squeals because the pads are held firmly on the rotors. Check it out.
