Within the last week I have developed some brake squeal from the ceramics. Never happened once in the first 4 mos./2500 miles. The car was not affected by the initial brake workshop campaign. Only happens with light touch at very low speeds. Temps have been the lowest since car arrived, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Anybody else with PCCB notice any squeal after initial silence?



Sounds like your brake pads may have become "glazed" due to "over-civilized" use of the brakes.

The cure would be to get out on traffic-free, cop-free highway and to brake hard several times from as high a speed as you want to go to, to wear off the glazed surface.

This will also help shorten the braking distance in case you ever really need to do an emergency stop.
