my 2010 did this about half a dozen times when it was cold out and the car was new. Hasn't done it since.

I think we just need to keep this thread at the top of the forum for a bit to get more people to respond to the poll.

I used to go to both AW and AZ, but it seems that most people post their pics, questions, comments, etc at both sites. That would clearly mean we are double counting...

Yeah mine squeal every so often right when it started getting cold here in the East coast a month ago or so. Very annoying! I try to release the brake when I start to hear the squeal start so that it doesn't grab too much attention.

Exactly 100 responses so far and we are at 93% with brake squeal (of those with cold weather conditions).
