Default Braking Crybabies,Yuppies, and Posers too

Porsche has made a video for all of the above that complain about braking noise.

Funny video of Porsche assuming complainers would be convinced.

I'm either break squeal tone deaf or mine doesn't.
997's with PFC pads squealed like a schoolbus.

10 GT3 with iron rotors no squeal, 15 GT3 with iron rotors squealed for the first 1000 miles, GT4 with PCCB no squealing - switched to Grodisc and no squealing.

My brakes don't squeal at all, my PCCBs or irons. Had a little squeal on my '14 Cayman S iron rotors once in a while when I did slow braking around town, but a hard braking would always cure it.

I've never had noise or squealing issues with PCCBs. Just bed the pads properly every once in a while. If squealing persist, stop driving like a grandma. Drive real fast, brake real fast. Problem solved.
