I know this topic has been tackled multiple times, but I'm THIS close to shooting myself due to the incessant squealing from my M Sport brakes. I was checking out new brake pads at Turner Motorsports and found the Centric Posi-Quiet Semi Metallic brake pads. Anyone have any experience with these?

Again, I use my 428i as a daily driver, never tracked. I just want my brakes to be quiet!!

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I had always heard that brake squeal is often due to the pad moving in the caliper housing, whereby the back of the pad rubs against the piston or the outside edges of the pads against the inside edges of the caliper. Usually that can be resolved by removing the pads, applying an anti-squeal adhesive to the pads, and then re-installing them.

I have the same issue on my 2015 435 with M package. It's embarrassing and although I love this car, BMW should be ashamed telling us it's normal. It's not! How can this possibly be normal???

My brakes were squealing a lot right before the pads needed to be changed. Even though the sensor didn't yet active, it began to wear or it. So my squealing was due to either the low level remaining on the pads or the wear sensors.

My 340 m-sport brakes squealed like a mo-fo with only a couple thousand miles on the odo. When I swapped the pads out, the rear calipers had ZERO lube on them. I'm guessing if the pistons and slides were properly lubed, it would have been fine.

Replacement pads are absolutely quiet (but the anti-seize lube was placed on all mating parts as spec'd).
