As the title says, sometimes when I'm braking, I hear a somewhat faint scraping sound, it's not there all the time. I know some cars have an audible warning designed into the system so that when new brake pads are needed you will hear that warning and can hopefully replace them before they have ground the rotors down. Does anyone know whether our cars have such a warning built into them, and whether hearing a scraping noise means that you made need new brake pads (or rotors)? Thanks all.
The car has 23,000 miles on it, and still has the OEM more aggressive brake pad option which came with the summer tire option. The car hasn't been tracked, and I don't use the brakes super hard on the street, but I know that the brake pads are used for the electronic torque vectoring system so may wear out sooner than you might expect.
