Brake squeak when going slow

335iwantabe · 07-02-2009, 09:48 PM

Is this weird...just got the car and after a few weeks that brakes are squeaking at slow speeds2-10 miles an hour..is there an adjustment or is this just normal..seems odd because pads seem to be soft.....Thanks

blue2fire · 07-02-2009, 10:00 PM

Oh, that is the transmission. I heard tuning the car makes it go horribly wrong.....

Just the rear brake sensors touching the pads, the dealer will take care of it. You could also search for details

jayely1 · 07-02-2009, 10:02 PM

oo shit dude...Its your tranny..

Try searching

Its normal...well considered normal...

citrixscu · 07-02-2009, 10:06 PM

I have the same problem. Search the board. There are plenty of threads about it.

veightkiller · 07-02-2009, 10:12 PM

ilidon · 07-02-2009, 10:19 PM

welcome to the club, its happened to a lot of e92 on this forum. sometimes, the temperature changes how bad the squealing is.

e90kiddo · 07-03-2009, 01:44 AM

take it to the dealer its a known issue.

KkSc · 07-03-2009, 02:51 AM

i had the same issue before, it is pretty annoying!

sokdo · 07-03-2009, 03:00 AM

I got my car 2 days ago and has about 205 miles. I hear the squeak when I break and get within 1-4 miles of a complete stop. Very small and only occasionally but its there.

335iwantabe · 07-06-2009, 12:38 PM

I think your right...It is the tranny.....or maybe just the 7th fensor valve...Thanks

ohaywood · 07-06-2009, 12:41 PM

2nd post today about this. It's normal, don't worry, but

AlpineG05 · 07-06-2009, 03:44 PM

I had the same problem dealer replaced my rear brakes.

boothguy · 07-06-2009, 10:14 PM

Consensur is that it seems to be a buildup of brake dust on the wear sensor for the rear brakes. Search function is your friend.

Aurora Bearialis · 07-06-2009, 10:16 PM

yeah its normal, it goes away when you change your brakes...

ak335 · 07-06-2009, 11:29 PM

Welcome to the club, almost everyone has that issue

persian54 · 07-07-2009, 12:10 AM
