Brake squeal

I have a 2009 g37s coupe which i just bought and have brand new brakes according to inspection i got done before buying it. When i apply the brakes in the morning it squeals really bad for first 10 times and then is normal. Happens only at slow speeds not at high speed. I guess the brakes need lube. Any suggestions

It's the four-piston calipers. Multi-piston calipers are prone to squeal when cold. C'est la vie.

Yeah pretty normal. Mine do it too and I changed everything out recently. Tapping the brakes a little hard a couple times can get the squeaks gone instead of a slow long one. My is only noticeable when backing up.
