Squealing brakes when stopping from low speeds?

Hey anyone else getting an annoying squealing sound from the brakes when braking from a low speed on the panamera? Should I be spraying down the caliper with water to clean off brake dust buildup? Apply an anti squeal paste? Any other tips/ideas? My wheels are wrapped so I dont think I should spray the wheel area with a high pressure wash.

I just got mine back after the 60K mile service and I did point out the brake squeal at slow speeds. The service department notes said it was normal and the pad measurement as of now is 7.5 and that they recommend changing when it gets to 3.5
I have not tried pressure washing it to see if the squeal goes away

I have the same issue. I changed mine three weeks ago. They are applying the BG stop squeal this Friday. I will let you know the result next week. I hope it works though.

Agree with DogWood, floor it and do a sudden hard brake! Squealing disappears Sames issues with bimmers and 911s.

I tried this few times. It did help just half a day. Brake was quick just morning and after morning. The squeal again in the afternoon.
