1000 miles in....

DanielChangg · 05-05-2013, 12:23 PM

Hey guys so I have a black m sport 335. I love it, except for one thing. THE BRAKES SQUEEAK AND SQUEEL like a broken down wagon. What should I do? It's killing me. We paid 50k+ for our cars and they squeak!

Mine stopped squealing around 2500 miles..others have taken theirs in to get the dealer to fix it

i'd say give it another 1000 miles, should go away if doesn't take it to the dealer!

Could always drive the car like a bat out of hell and get them a little toasty... should speed up the process

Did you do a "bedding" process?

If not try it.
Do a search on the web you'll find various bedding methods.
I like the Brembo's method, but find one you like and can safely do.

BTW, I too have a 335i Msport, my brakes never squealed.
Variations in build.
If the bedding doesn't help have the dealer check it out.

Mine still squeak coming to a stop sign or red light STILL and I'm at 5200 miles.

+1 on this method. go on the free way hit the speed limit..and take an exit ramp..DONT brake until close to the light, and then brake heavily until you stop.

just do it once or twice and then see if they still make some noise, they might have glazed over and you just need to warm them up.

if this doesnt work then you can just take it to the dealership and have them look at it.

but the first option is always more fun especially if you set up some cones and make it into a braking test with friends

Same here. It helps to drive "spiritedly" after break-in period
