LOL just spray some water in there that should do the trick, unless your breaks are low, then they are designed to be annoying so you will replace them.

Everyone So Far Has A Point Unless Theres Plenty Of Pad And Maybe It Needs That Goo Thats Called Break Quiet Or Something Like That. That They Sell At The Counter At Advance Auto For Like 99cents. That Goes Between The Pads And The Shims/shim Kit. I've Changed Various Brakes Except Haven't Had The Need To Do It On The G Yet.

check the pads, they might be low

if not, then some Disc Brake Quiet should do the trick or any type of white lithium grease would do the job

Me, too. Just got an '04 with Brembos. High pitch squeel coming from right front brake is driving me INSANE ! Pads don't need replacing but I worry about rotor damage. Any suggestions would seriously be appreciated. Also, anyone know of a trustworthy mechanic in Orlando ? New to G35driver site- thanks

most brembos squeel, the best solutions is to change pads

goto Performance Factory, they'll hook you up.

they are off of OBT and the turnpike

Brakes will squeal depending on the metallic content of the pad you're running. Before you go off spending money on new brakes, do this:

1. Clean your rotors with a brake cleaner and/or scotch brite them to get rid of any deposits
2. Can't believe no one has said it, but bed in the pads. That's most likely the cause of your problem. Follow the instructions in the link below:
