There is a fix to E63 brake squeel.

Just took the car to the shop for the ever obnoxious brake squeel.
Here is the result:

Total labor = $224
Costs for front and rear pads = $581
Srewed by mb for what should be warranty work = Priceless

I got pwned. On the brighter side...no more squeel.

Did you replace with OEM pads or aftermarket like Porterfield? I had an independent shop replace my pads with OEM pads and the squeal is still there. I'm now considering replacing with Porterfield pads.

my brakes use to squeel like crazy and after 2 dealer visits, no fix. I put anti-squeel on the back of the pads myself and that ended my embarassing squeel saga.

The stealer owned me. They replaced mine with OEM pads. I wish I would done more research on the forum. Lesson learned.

HAHA! I wish showing my SA the DTB would have worked. My SA gave me the run around when I showed it her. She claimed she didnt know what it is. She said to me, "It's performance brakes. It's normal." BS, then there would be a lot of high performance cars with squeeling brakes.
