    Mine are not as bad as some here but that is a common problem if the dealer didn't clean the rotors as I'm sure mine didn't :

    Mine are what I consider very noisy. There is also a disturbing noise when I roll it backwards in Neutral.

    Lamont,
    Was told today by FG that brake cleaning is not part of the PDI...I looked it's on the list.

    We need to be able to report stuff like that to BRP. It's pretty bad that the customer knows more about setting these things up than the dealer. :

    When I picked mine up yesterday, I bought those red caliper trim stickers. I asked if I could borrow some brake parts cleaner to get any oil or dirt of the calipers before I stuck the red stickers on. While I was down there, I gave the rotors a little shot of the cleaner and wiped them off. They seemed to be free of any oils and whatnot so I hope that I don't develop this brake squeal issue.

    You gotta stomp on them.... get going around 65 and stomp on them... Since I did that - no squeaking at all.....
