Default Squeaky Brakes...???
Hi All!

I recently purchased my Pan GTS CPO about a month and a half ago and I have a squeaky brakes (just from the front driver). When I bought the car I was told the brakes were replaced so I thought they needed be worn in a bit but after 1.5 months I would think that should stop... Or is everyone’s brakes squeaky ... or do I have to go back to the dealer again??

Thanks all!

Once, in 12 months mine squeaked.

Maybe go back, probably just needs some more anti-squeal paste

Did they change the discs - if not are they lipped ?

I think I will as the brakes were replaced and it’s a high pitch squeak when I lightly press the brake but if I brake harder it goes away.

Possibly a bit of grit between pad and disc.

but most likely needs another smear of anti squeal paste

i have the squeaky noise too - my dealer says there is nothing one can do except brake hard and remove the film of dirt that is causing the squeakiness.

one of the things i love about my 971 ST panamera is quiet-as-mice brakes.
my old RS Audi's would howl like banshees at every stop, very embarrassing.
time for a brand new car?

I saw this and I understand it as my last car sounded like the video but Pan sounded higher pitched may its a speed thing but its fixed now! It was dirt I assume.

And.... well it worked. It was raining today so I didn’t do a launch but my office complex is empty at about 530 so I left at 6 did a few 50 to 0 hard stops (non skid) and it seems to have worked..... No more noise. My ears are great full.

2013 model started to squeak a lot recently. The noticeable difference is either 2000km more mileage , or the colder weather. In my case with carbon brakes, i doubt it could be coming from dust.
After warming up 10minutes into a drive, they become better

FWIW, I just went through this, and in my opinion, it's due to not putting enough grease in the right areas. As of now, I have no squeaks. So OEM everything on my car and no squeaks.

If it were a CPO and the brakes were recently done by the dealer (for an astronomical sum I'm sure), I would take it back to the dealer and make them take a look.

I don't really buy into "Porsche brakes squeak because they're super awesome!" excuse. Maybe its just me, but the squealing drove me absolutely crazy at every single stop. I'm not kidding when I say if I was not able to fix this, I'd be finding a different car.
