IS 350 Break squeaking
I know this is a well documented problem, but didn't read any fixes. I have taken it to the dealer and they re-surfaced the rotors. Still has the problem.
Some say change to non-OEM pads. Will that take care of the problem? If so, which one? Just annoying. I know people say to drive it hard, but I live in So Cal...so traffic is a part of life. It just drives me more nuts with the squeaking when I'm in stop and go traffic.
thanks.

I have the same problem. I had my rotors resurfaced and low dust Centric pads put it like 9k miles ago during my 30k service, and it recently started squealing again. Driving it hard helps, but it doesn't completely remove the problem. :l
Usually, when I pull outta my driveway in residential, I just speed down the street (without revving it too high and waking the neighbors, of course
and slam on the brakes, and that usually gets rid of the squealing for a bit.
All in all, I think I'm just going to go with cross drilled/slotted rotors + new pads pretty soon. :P
