After a wash, they're good for about a day, and then begin to squeal again at every stop. When I was at my BMW dealer last week, they have a service bulletin specifically advising customers that BMW brakes are prone to noise.
I might consider swapping my pads to Carbotech, since its a win/win situation in regards to brake dust & squealing.
Thx though for the advise.
