How many of you have issues with your brakes sqeaking on the decel. I have heard of the brake squeal on acceleration which isn't the problem I have. When my pad have warmed up the right rear wheel squeaks like hell.http://www.e90post.com/forums/images/smilies/mad0260.gif How have you dealt with the issue other than letting the dealer take your car all day and play with it?

this is a fairly common problem with E90s... Just take it to the dealer and have them fix it... some fixes aren't permanent, which can be annoying while some have had success and the squeak is gone completely. It has something to do with the brake sensors touching the rotors or some crap..

do a search on e90post.com, theres a lot of talk about this

I had this on my 07 335i.
I had it into the dealer 3 times for this issue. It finally was resolved when they took apart the rear brakes and worked on the hand brake release ____?? Apparently the rear brakes would hang-up ever so slightly and is only noticeable at very low speeds. They lubed the release and I have not had the issue for nearly a year.

Good luck to you....
