Brakes squeak

yeah_knee · 05-13-2016, 02:18 AM

My brakes squeak when I apply them. The funny thing is I just got the front pads and rotors replaced. Back brakes are still in good shape. The dealership claimed the M's have a tendency to squeak when the brakes are applied. Is this true? Can anyone relate?

I just got 2000 KM on my brand new m5 and the breaks sound are there. (Mine aren't ceramic)

I think even the owner's manual states that brake noise is normal as well.

Yep normal, just suck it up and drake harder- cures in the short term.

No real cure and many makes with hight performance brakes have this 'issue'. Think of it as a status simble for having such a fast car!
