It was replaced under warranty.

OOPS jack i think i confused u

i mean my PCCB is too quiet beyond normal. i know u surpose to hear some squeaky sound out of it.

Just brake later and harder, and the noise will go away.

Try it, you'll like it!

A slight graoning/moaning sounds seems to be the norm. However, I do notice they can sound down right nasty if stuck in stop and go traffic for a while. The nastiness usually goes away once the pads get scrubbed by braking from speed. New front pads also helped.

FYI.. the yellow sport pad for the PCCB's have now been replaced by a black/white sport pad in early 04.
