Angry SL55 brake noise,I/C pump ?

Hi. I have 04 SL55 AMG. Dealer just replaced rotor and pads on all 4 corners, Now every time when I apply brakes it makes scraching noisy. Took the car back to the dealer 3 times but problem still exist. It does not make any noisy when I brake hard but normal stop and go it drives me crazy Can any member have a cure or guide me a direction.

2 days ago I was try to pass the car useing on a two lane road car was going fine but when it hit over 75 mph it was like coughing ? feels like misfiring and did not go that fast so I slowed down. When I drive normal it never did that but this was the only time that I realley push the pedal to the floor. Since then car seems drives slower it does not have the that kick when I take off. other than that the car is awesom. Do you think this is I/C pump problem ?

The brake noise sounds like they could just need bedding in.

The performance issue could be the IC pump. It sounds like a trip to the dealer is in order!
