Squeaking brakes on a new MC
Hey guys...Just wondering if there is something wrong with my brakes already. Got the new Mini about three weeks ago and from time to time I hear squeaking. Just wondering if this normal or if it is something I should call the dealer about? Happens maybe once every two to three days. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My brakes tends to squeak after there is some oxidation on the rotor
after a car wash or sitting in the rain. It will squeak at less than 5mph
to a stop. wat I usually do is spray some RC car motor spray onto
the pad to clean it off. For some reason, it appears it is always the outer
pad that's making the squeak.
A drop of WD40 on a cold rotor will also work too, but I would recommend
cleaning the pad with a blast of the RC car motor spray first as you want
to try to stay away from excessive oils on the rotor or pads.
