Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the free brake pads due to squeal apply to 2005 cars.

My dealer fixed my squealing front brakes on my '05 RX8- no charge. Front rotors resurfaced and front pads replaced.

Early 2004, 11,000 miles so far without problems, no squeaks. Pads look ok though judging by the brake dust you think there'd be nothing left by now

Search the tech garage for "brakes" and "bedding"
