Shame on BMW for trying to shirk their responsibilities.   |
I mean maybe, sounds a bit unhinged though - honestly I've been dealing with this for ~6 years now and eons ago I learned how to fix it with a quick full throttle and a hard brake and that's worked across 3 cars. (afaik, there are other fixes, and some have bent the shield, etc). It's kind of an excuse for fun!
This is one of those things there seems to be a legit design reason for, but leads to brake noise like ceramic.
Maybe I've gotten complacent but honestly it's like shifting for me now, I just clear the rock unconsciously, just not that big of a deal despite happening frequently.
Designs have trade-offs and this seems like one of them.
