Your brakes are telling you they need replacing soon. They have a built in "squealer" designed to make a noise when the pad wear is nearing the end.

Why does your BMW 2004 525 brakes sqeek?
Brakes on any car car squeal or squeak for a variety of reasons: 1. Very hard brake compound. (Metallic Compound Pads) 2. Worn out Pads with a wear indicator device. 3. Foreign material on the rotor or pad. 4. Anti-squeal material not used when Pads installed. If you changed the Pads yourself, did you use the anti-squeal paste? Either check the brakes yourself for items 1 thru 4, other take the car to a mechanic for a brake check.
Will I need new brake pads if my car is making a squeaking sound when I use the brakes?
There are several things that may make your brakes squeal. The most common causes are a lack of lubrication and worn brake pads. Less common (and not all agree that it is a cause) is dust and grime in the brake system. The best thing to do is to take your car to a mechanic and have your brakes checked and make the necessary repairs.

Why does ABS light stay on and brakes squeal on my 96 Lincoln Town car?
Your brake system needs repair immediately. The brakes are squealing because the pads are worn out, and you are hearing the warning device or the metal to metal contact of the pad and rotor. Stop driving the car and have the brakes repaired. The ABS light may or may not go out. If it does not, there is problem with the ABS. Your standard brakes will still work.

That could be the brake pad "squealers". They are designed to squeal when they are worn out. Time for a brake job.
