Ditto for all the common complaints: squealing only during light braking, but quite annoying. I plan to take some remedial action in brake dust cleaning and anti-squeal spay-ons early next spring.

I've pretty much gotten the most egregious squealing under control without having to apply experimental labor. By gently modulating the brakes as I slow just before coming to a stop, I've pretty much eliminated the squealing without jostling passengers.

I use the Disc Brake Quiet spray also. I've had pretty good results with it.

That is very close to the precedure my friend uses to bed in racing pads on customers cars.

I've been following his advice on bedding in pads for quite a while now. I go between different pads without changing rotors all the time, no squeeling.

Irecently installed brake pads over slightly warped rotors and I have squeal. I doubt the squeal will go away. I've bedded them very well.
