So I 'm now looking at some aftermarket pads to maybe help reduce the squealing and brake dust.
I know what you meant. (I was trying to be funny. I'll try harder next time.) Good luck with the TSB. If you're looking for reduced dust, you need to find ceramic pads.

fyi, my brakes squeaked as well, then I replaced them with Hawk pads. I found out why mine were squeaking and probably the same for most cars. The "silencer shim" on the back of the pads came loose on the drivers side, since the install of my Hawks I have zero squeaks.
