Brakes Squeal
ALL OF A SUDDEN my brakes start to squeal when coming to a stop from 5mph to 1mph otherwise it does not squeak..
Do i need to change my brake pads? I dont think so because there is still a lot of meat left on the pads in the front and i just changed the rear 1 month ago.. I dont believe there is a rock in the brembos because its been like this for about 3 weeks. So maybe i still need to change the pads? Idk what to do.. any advice or info would help. Thanks.

You probably just need to go by your local auto parts store and pick up some anti squeel for your pads. If you're worried it's the pads then pull them and visually inspect them, the calipers, and rotors to make sure everything is in good working condition. More than likely you just need some anti squeel.

Sorry for the late update TxFAkuma. I went to the track the day before for a time attack event and now I don't have brake squeal anymore. I guess you gotta show them who's boss lol

Did you properly bed the pads?
Sorry I got off subject. When you recently replaced your pads did you replace your rotors too? If not did you have them turned? If no to both those questions does the outer edge of your rotor have a lip, and how many miles are on those rotors?
The reason I ask is that lip on the rotor can cause noise coming to a stop from very slow speeds, and even make noise when slowly leaving a stop up to 5-8mph. I see it a lot when Porsche customers cheap out and just buy pads and leave the worn rotors.

I've had my car for a year now and thoroughly impressed with the handling. Caught the mod disease too and starting to collect parts in my garage lol
