My front brembo brakes squeals too but only after some aggressive braking. And the squeal only happens when coming to a stop at low speed. I am guessing the brake dust could be causing the squeal.

Just started to get the exact same problem. I thought it was from rotors getting wet after a car wash, but nope, it only happens when i go in reverse and not forward. Strange, but brake squeal has been a problem for most Z owners from the start and I believe there was a TSB issued on the squeal problem.
