Hi,

I have the issue and it is definitely the front brakes.
To me is looks more like and issue of pad height.
The BMW pads create a ridge on the rotor, at the top and bottom of the brake pad.
I think the ridge is rubbing the edge of the pad after a certain amount of wear on the rotor.

If I apply the lightest pressure the squeak goes away. At my next service visit they will be doing a brake job on my car, because I plan to squeak like the damn brakes.

--Update

Went in for service.
According to my SA, they all do that once you change the pads and do not change the rotor.
The 1mm ridge that shows after the rotor wears is the cause. BMW will not fix or do anything about the squeak.
SA - "They all do or will do that."
