Every day my brakes are squeaking at almost every stop. Its embarrassing. Is this normal? All 2,000 miles on the car have been this way. I live in a very hot and dry climate if that matters.
Y'all need to clean your brake calipers. The only thing stomping on them is doing is dislodging the brake dust and making some of it fall off. Take a pressure washer or strong garden hose to them to wash out the dust.
is this serious?
Yes, they need to rinse out their brake calipers. Works every time.
I cannot tell if you genuinely believe these things you say, or you're the greatest troll in the history of mankind.
Doesnt have anything to do with rinsing out brake calipers....has to do with the material used in the brakes....and although the GT350 brakes are not CC, the materials and design of the brake system still contributes to squeaking....I've sat in Ferrari 458s, Lamborghinis, etc etc - all squeaked.

gonna disagree with washing them out. Ive had regular old Hawk HPS pads do that when new, as soon as I finish the bedding procedure it goes away. Hell, many brake systems will squeak more the first few stops after washing due to surface rust forming on the face of the rotor
I second DSG, bed your brakes in or replace with a lowdust from hawke like the HPS. I run a hawke low dust on 3 of my vehicles and have track pads from hawke that I put on for track days
if the factory pad is a high dust pad, and you arnt on the track, I would(and I have on my audi). I did it just for the ease of not having to clean my wheels every day and saved the other pads for DE days. Being that yours is brand new, bed them in a couple times. Baer and Hawke both have bed in directions on their sitesI dont think Id be replacing brand new pads on my GT350 just yet lol
What the hell do you think is causing the noise?? The damned dust builds up and ends up getting between the pad and rotor and causes the high frequency squeal. And what the hell was that article supposed to prove? (From USA Today, no less. Not exactly an automotive authority.) And in case you can't string the ideas together, yes, pad material is a variable.
but you dont feel the need to explain any of that? ...
Not trying to be a dick, but I thought it would be self-explanatory. My apologies. And I mean that.
