Everytime I apply brakes at a low speed it makes this awful noise.

are you parked in the video?

i'm going to guess your caliper slides need lubing. or very rare, one of your wheels' lugs is loose, but you'd have a vibration or wobble too.

that are the brakes grabing the disks with a slight slippage...
I actually have this too. I thouhgt it was normal as it has been on a lot of my cars..

happens when there is a lot of weight on the brakes and they are still cold....eg.. starting the car and on a steep hill

let me know if anyone thinks otherwise...

Just slam on your brakes more...that would be my cure.

Thanks Marc I do tend to act like grandma while applying the brakes. Ulvit are you sure thats normal? The noise sounds much uglier in person and none of my other cars do this?
