Anyone has the same sit?

It's been really cold here in the Garden State.

My brakes is squeaking like theres no tomorrow.

Is this normal?

110 miles and they don't squeak yet but the do have sort of very very subtle low-groan when starting from rest. I don't mind it though

My old 325i did the same thing.

One thing I have always noticed about the brakes on the BMWs, if you don't clean the wheels of all of the brake dust, it seems to make it's way back onto the rotors and the brakes start squeeling. Happened in my old 325xi.

Given the weather, when is the last time you cleaned the car?

You got it there...clean the wheels.

Dirty wheels and brakes will make any car squeeel. *Thinks of the old volvo 850*

It actually could be something on the pad which is rubbing too closely. I dunno how to explain it but it happened on my 745 and i took it to the dealer and they fixed it. They said it was a common problem.
