One change I noticed is the transition from regen to hydraulic braking ( around 5 or 6 miles per hour ) is smoother when coming to a stop now.

Which dealership in San Diego was this? I bought mine from Kearny Mesa Toyota, but not too impressed with their service. BTW, does anyone know if this applies to 08s as well? I do hear some squeak when backing out of my driveway. Originally I thought maybe my wheels were rubbing due to the 18" rims, but now it may well be the front brakes. If it is, I'd like to get it taken care of. I have 5200 miles on my '08.
