1LE brakes moaning?

Did some research and it appears there is a TSB on this. The brakes start "moaning" as you come to a slow stop. Just wondering if anyone has had this issue and if yes, did it eventually go away?

Hmm, not sure I've heard brakes moan before. I don't know what noise you're hearing honestly.

I have. 2021 1le with 950 miles on it on more than one occasion. Almost like a caliper is hanging up.

As far as I know the 1LE brakes are the same as the standard ZL1, I've heard no moaning or any other noises from mine. I wonder if its a brake pad issue because I've been running Carbotech pads since my car had 10 miles on it.

did you try bedding the brakes? if you already did, I would then replace the brake pads on that rotor.

Or swap them to the other side of the car and see if they make the same noise on that side of the car.

I have not tried bedding the brakes yet since we're not supposed to do any hard stopping the first 500 miles. Hopefully that's all it is. I'm a little surprised this doesnt seem to be a common issue...once it happens, you'll know it. It's loud!

Timbo...lol she always gets adequate foreplay

Yes its pretty common, just do a few aggressive stops and it will go away.

I had some on mine. Did some aggressive braking and it went away. Gotta be rough with her sometimes.

i tried some aggressive braking and it only helped temporarily...a track day fixed it for good though.

mine was so bad you could not only hear it, but feel the moaning(i know i know, that's what she said)
