The Brakes on my CSRT8 squeek like crazy.I bed the brakes once every 6 months and it's fine.Plus it brakes much better.

Folks, it may be annoying but it's really just because the brakes are so LARGE on the sport. I just test drove a Lexus ISF (with 14" rotors) and a Jag XF (with 14" rotors) and, quite honestly, they all had the same or similar noises from the brakes - mostly in reverse. The Lexus has the least noise as it appears that slotted/drilled rotors may help the problem..... embarassing yes, but you'll outstop the people that give you $hit and then who'll be embarassed... :-)

I hate the squeal from the brakes in reverse and mine has done it from day 1.

I was told it was normal. still annoying though.

That's probably when your car has been sitting overnight and developed a light coating of rust on the rotors. If it only happens each morning and then goes away, it's just rust. It's normal.

I dont see anything about mileage..... I might have to argue because I complained since 10,000 and they never fixed it.
