Default groaning noise from brakes

I just got a gs400, and the brakes squeaked, i asked the dealer to fix it, he did, and claimed he put brand new rotors and brake pads, and now it makes a groaning noise - is this normal with new pads / rotors?

Give the pads a week or two to brake in. If it continues, have them fix it.

make sure you also "bed" your brakes in properly. otherwise, they have a larger chance of warping.

search under "brake bed" or "bedding brakes" and you should find a thread within the last year about this topic.
