Default Re: Loving my XF - brake chirps/squeals

It seems to only be noticeable at slow speeds when break is not being applied. The mechanic said it is from the car sitting and having rust on roter and said it should go away with driving the car more. It is kind of annoying, is there a way to fix this right away?
Can try bedding the brakes.

60 to almost 0 (do not complete stop) repeat 3or 4x in a row, then drive for at least 10 min w/o comimg to a complete stop allowing the brakes to cool.
