Anyone's brakes make noise when rolling to a stop? I believe my front left brake is the culprit. Car only has 120miles on it and it only happens at 5 miles per hour and under.

If its a squeaking noise,then that would be the break dust collecting in the disk vents. It tends to happen on new vehicles. After a wash it will be fine for a bit.

If not, then I would take my car to the dealership service centre for a check.

I have the same problem and it's not brake dust.. I went to bring it in for service they couldn't find the problem.. But it always happens to me under 5 mph it sounds like a grinding noise I donno how to explain the noise it's weird..

It's perfectly normal. If you are feathering the brakes at 5-10mph. It's a high performance vehicle, different material on the brakes. The M3's brakes squeak too. You should hear my GTR, now those brakes squeak

Was happening to me in the first few hundred miles but is mostly gone after 900+ miles.

Haven't really noticed any brake squeaks on mine and I'm at 3400 miles.

Hunter5179 · 01-02-2013, 09:32 PM

Yeah ill prob take mine in as well.

akm · 01-07-2013, 03:41 AM

I haven't faced such a problem, with regards to the replies i guess its a normal issue.

Stonehands · 01-19-2013, 04:37 AM

Mine started to do this just recently. Thought it was brake dust and would clear up with car wash. Just had it washed and squeal worse. Have over 3500 miles on it. Going in Tues on unrelated concerns. Will add to the list. I will report any findings.

jettie1767 · 01-19-2013, 07:43 AM

I spoke too soon. Now I got this problem too. I'm at 5500 miles. I scheduled it for service and going in a week.
