Squeaky brakes
I've got some rear ceramic pads, VERY high quality, for like 35+shipping brand new. Ordered them by accident and I needed a more "heavy duty" compound. They are great for DD. Pm me if interested. Retail around $70ish and wont squeal.

The stock pads are farrodos I think. They squeak like hell lol You could always pop them out throw copper grease on the back of the shims or just pick up some new pads. This is common with the stock pads though. So dont worry.
yup, mine squeal as well from time to time, esp after a long hiatus of car washing. then right after the wash, if you don't drive it and let the rotors rust over a bit, they squeal to all hell. but then after a good drive, all is quiet again. no worries.
I too have an 2011 with 5K miles and mine squeak too. They squeak primarily on light braking right before you come to a stop..particularly when your slowly rolling up to a red light and your giving light pressure. Its a common issue and is more annoying then harmful.
It can be embarrassing rollin up in your sweet ride but then your squeaking like a old rust bucket...but anyone who knows cars know Brembos occasionally do this..let alone rust buckets don't even have Brembos so if anyone giggles at you their just jealous.

I bought my 2010 used a little over a motnh ago. The dealship I bought it from installed some new stock pads on it before I bought it. It squealed like crazy right from the start. I read on here and other places that Brembos squeal and to me that seemed crazy! I tore all my brakes apart and hosed them out with brake cleaner. I bought a can of EBC heavy duty brake grease from Auto Zone and used to to cover every metal to metal contact point on the pads. I even put it between the anti-squeal shim and the pad. I put it everywhere the pad touched the caliper, including the pins. Now my brakes don't make a sound. They are quiet under all braking conditions even when they are dirty. I still go to the car wash once a week and blast off the brake dust but that is more cause I cant stand my rims looking like crap.
I kew there had to be a fix for this, and for me it was simplly cause the brake pads were bone dry when they were installed.

I have never put any real effort into cleaning my brakes, and I am still on the original pads (from 08) and they only squeak a little when the car is cold. After everything warms up I have never heard mine make any significant noise
