Am not a car DIY'er by any stretch of the imagination. No it started about 4 months ago out of the Blue. So I took it to my local garage and they said they could clean them up as brake dust can build from the wheels. I asked them about the condition of the pads and that's what they told me.

Pads haven't been replaced as there was apparently enough left on them. The disks where cleaned at a non BMW garage. I assumed that going to a BMW garage would be £££

Not sure if this has been answered already. Everytime I brake it gives an awful screeching noise. No warning lights on the dash. I have been to have them cleaned by the garage, but it still persists. I have been told there is plenty of life left on my brake shoes, but if the cleaning didn't work I need to replace the discs and pads to the tune of £400! Any help?
