My brakes are creaking really badly when I am in a forward motion and hitting the brakes. But in reverse this doesn't happen. Anyone know the cause? I've changed brake pads and rotor about 6months ago, as far as I know, I havent done anything to merit a warp rotor... but than again i could be wrong.

Brake dust causes squeaking drums. Well not quite squeaking, but more of a loud high pitched... rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Lotsa dust gets caught up in those things. Could also be time for new brake shoes, depending if yours have ever been replaced or not (they last a really long time since most of the load is on the front brakes).
