Default F Sport Brakes

I've been searching for info on this but couldn't really find much, do the 4th gen models have issues with squeaking brakes?

Thanks.

My factory 2 piece rotors didn't squeak. My aftermarket cross drilled and slotted rotors squeaked from day 1. I've used glue, goo and grease. I got it mostly quiet by using a non metallic pad.....

It does stop very very well.....

Not that I know of... Our F Sport probably has regenerative braking like the Tesla.

Didn't you post like one little post somewhere about the F Sport brake squeal? Maybe I am mistaken? I guess not, being that some are saying they searched and not really much on this? Never mind, I must be losing my mind.

Was not really a wish, more like a absolute prediction based on history.

Now - Next, the clock is ticking on your F Sport 1k, 1.5k, 2k, 3k, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick sqeeeeeeeeel! Good Luck!!

Nah man, it's almost 2K and still squeal free and lube free. They fixed all the problems for 2019 and 2020.

Check your search process, I think the first five pages are all specific to this issue. Use google to get what you need.

I was testing out a theory from another thread, I guess people really like to talk about their brakes.

Thanks.

You have nothing better to do than to start a thread about, or nothing to contribute to the 4th Gen forum? Really?
