that sucks. I should look at that before I take mine in, but then again it's going in there for the cold start up issue too

Not really. The pads are really great @ 10mm on them and the rotors are not worn at all!!! I am a happy camper

Well they gave me a loaner car and they said they'll call me to see if they can swap out the brake pads. The SA said it shouldn't be a problem. They also need to replicate my cold start up noise so they're not sure when I'm getting my car back, but I'm fine with it I guess as long as it gets fixed.
