Noise when slowly breaking
 
First time posting, just looking for some advice. I have gone through the forums and haven't been able to solve my issue. I own a 2016 base 370z, the problem occurs when slowing/coasting down and not pressing the brake pedal down to much, a loud squeal happens till I press the pedal down further. Tried simple fixes, new oem brake pads (tried 2 different types since & followed the bedding procedure each time), new shims, dust plate is clear, backing plate appears to be good. I do have slotted rotors, which was suggested could be the issue. Not sure if that is why, wanted to see if anymore had an opinion before I try and swap that out. Thanks, i appreciate it

Try anti-squeal on the brake pads, and bed them properly.

I wouldn't bother with the anti-squeal - just go through the bedding procedure. YMMV

You may want to look at how you brake. Poor braking habits can lead to pad material depositing on the rotors, causing vibration and/or squealing.

My Carbotech XP's and Racing Brake rotors make a nice loud squeal when coming to a slow stop. I can modulate the brake pedal to change the pitch of the squeal. :rofl2:

But stock pads and rotors should not squeal.

Any pad and rotor setup can squeal. It is all about the install.
