Does everyone/most have brakes that squeal?
Picking up car tomorrow (wife's primary) and kind of concerned. I know high performance car, etc but could be a problem for her. I wanted to get more info before I bring it up to her. She had a cayenne TT that squealed and wasn't happy at all.
Please check in with your experience. Thx. |

Normal with most cars with large perforated rotor. I get it after washes or heavy rain and just make it go away by slamming on the breaks from 45+mph.

There is a huge squeaking noise, like a big explosion whenever you touch the brake pedal... be prepared (JK)
