12000 miles no issue but my 2 cents, could have anything to do with going to 20 " wheels, one reason I decided to go from 19's to 18's later on, also if you don't calibrate your computer to new wheel size affects antilock system. my 2 cents. sorry

Actually hydraulic force will act equally on all surfaces. If a source of hydraulic pressure exerted pressure through a tube and that tube had two pistons, one at 6 inches away and one at 12 feet away, as long as there was no air in the system the pressure acting on the pistons would be the same.

Forgot to mention its called Pascal's Law.

I get the noise every now and then. I'm kinda use to it with having aftermarket semi-metallic pads on other cars that did it also.

If there is not loose parts, no groove sinthe rotor or objects stock in the braking system it is normal for these pads to squeal.

Pascal was always smarter than me at school. I mix stuff up all the time, don't listen to me. Your right, I was confusing brake bleeding rules and how the metering of the mater cylinder applies pressure to the front brakes before applying pressure to the rears. Thanks for clarifying Xcelsius.

unfortunately even if you do take it into the dealer and it is the pads they Likely wont replace it under warranty (unless you are under like 500 miles) depends on the dealership, but brakes are considered wear and tear items. If they look worn (even if its faster than its supposed to be) they will still make you pay for them. the idea is that some people are really hard on brakes, ride their brakes, etc.. I usually get noise from my brakes when its really cold out, once they warm up they are fine.. but no pulling..

if I havn't driven the car in a while, there gets to be a little rust on the disks. That will make noise until its rubbed off.
