The noise will probably be caused by the grooves in your disks - all grooved disks are noisy to some extent and you can often feel the grooves through the brake pedal. If your disks are within the wear limits and are not discoloured I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Thanks for the replys.
They only have 6500Km (about 4000miles) and I don't drive very "heavy" (well for a scooby...)

Salute
