Carbon Ceramic brakes

Has any had squeeking/screeching problems with the carbon ceramics? Dealer tells me that is normal and nothing they can do about it. Presumably, brakes have to heat up, i.e., racing? Any thought or comments or suggestions

On the whole no issues, but mine can occasionally squeal depending on temp and weather. Rain seems to make them noisier and it's certainly not all the time.

Regardless though, BMW have well and truly covered themselves in respect of this as the handbook specifically calls out noise with ceramic brakes as being normal!
