howling SVX brakes?
I've noticed that when using the brakes to gradually slow down from "around town" speeds, the brakes will start howling during the gradual slowing of the car. It seems to only happen when I use the brakes moderately. If I really stomp on the brakes when slowing, then there is no howling. Anyone else have this happen to them?

brake pads
Try some quality pads such as Axxis. If you use them hard, get the PowerMax. If you just drive normally, get the Deluxe. The Deluxe has NO dust, the PowerMax has some.
