Summary
Customer may complain about brake squeak or squeal with light moderate pedal pressure. The noise is created by the brake pad material. A new brake pad (part number 4G0698151K) with improved compound has been developed. The supplier cannot currently produce this part in high volume due to factory capacity, which is causing a delay in part availability. It is possible that installing the original brake pad (part number 4G0698151D) will reduce the noise, but doing so is not always effective.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 8 complaints in the brakes category.
