Default brake noise

When I hold down my brakes and nudge it alittle it makes grunting noises. It doesn't make any noise during braking. Brake seems to stop fine, just makes noises when I'm holding it down. Does this mean time for a brake job?

Default LS 460 Brakes

Previous GS owner, very happy.

2007 LS 460 purchased new: At 30K encountered significant vibration when braking in city traffic; @30K service it was determined that rotors were warped; replaced (along with new brake pads) covered by warranty.

At 35K encountered new vibration when braking at higher speeds (50-60MPH) to slow down in commuter traffic. Rotors, warped, machined, covered by warranty.

One friend stated he has had brake issues with 2007 model; another friend who owns 2008 model has had no issues (55k mile so far).

Love the car, hopefully don't have to deal with long term, chronic, brake problems......
