What a bummer!!
Definitely partly a function of the pads. My Carbotech pads have been good so far, I've got about 120 kms on the kit already. Only heard a slight squeal/squeak when grabbing a coffee this morning in the drive-thru (at very slow speed). Our E82 M Sport still has the OE brakes and they are brutal for dust/squealing. 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.
