E63 brake squeal
Hi I had a shop check my brakes and they have 7mm left on the fronts and 5mm on the rears, so no change is necessary at this time. However the brakes squeal at a light touch while braking lightly and goes away when I stomp on the brakes. I have heard that this is normal so what can I do before taking out the pads and applying anti squeal or repackthe brakes?

Have you tried re-bedding them? Some guys have had success with this.

There is lots of superstition about the "best" way to bed the brakes, so I'm sure with some googling you can find something that you like
