Squeek only when depressing brake

I have searched and searched, but found nothing. The search is becoming less helpful daily. But my problems are:

1-Brakes - When I let go of the brake, it make a squeek noise. It never makes it when I press the brake, or am driving, but every single time I let off the brake, it squeeks. Any ideas? Bleed brake lines, new pads. I probably am going to need new pads soon anyways.

2-Upper Mount - I have stock suspension, was never replaced (01civiclx). When I am driving slowly, and make a turn or go over a speed bump, I hear a loud A$$ popping, cracking noise. I have had my CV boot\joints checked,a nd they are fine. My mechanic told me new struts, but if I only need the upper mounts that would be better, since Im saving for a new suspension anyways, but I would like to fix this right now. I really dont believe my struts are blown, they arent very bouncy or anything. Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, sorry I couldnt find my answers in the Search, or vehicles issues.

I know I just had my master cylinder replaced, is the slave different? That would suck to have to replace that too

slave cylinder is clutch related.
if u just had ur master cylinder replaced it might just be lack of lubrication somewhere. id get down there and push it to hear exactly where its comin from
