Brake Squeal - Gallardo

I'm getting significant brake squeal when coming to a stop. Between around 10-0 mph.

Is this just new brakes settling? Is it Common? Common to Lambo? Is it something I need to have serviced?

Thanks!

I would guess it's just breaks 'breaking in'

How many miles on the car?

The squeeal should go away as you get more miles in. Have you asked your dealer about it?

Hey MurcieGallardoTako,
I notice from your signature that you have TWO Gallardos. Tell me about that! Why two? Which do you like better the 6 or e-Gear? Which one gets the most miles on it? How do you think it compaires to your Murcielago?
