yeah, I used posi-quiet. I'm not really sure if dust was reduced, cause about the same time I purchased another car, so I don't drive the BMW as much now. I did put a lot of drake quiet goo on the pads, so not sure how effect the shims are are alone.
I do still get some light squeal at times... have to be against a wall to hear it, but not as bad as before. Now I don't know how much of my squeal before was BMW pads and/or brake sensor. After changing my brakes I did still have a very noticeable squeal (with replacement sensors) and disconnecting them reduced it considerably. I did buy the cheap sensors though... i wonder if the higher priced ones would be better.
