Reasons for Abnormal Noise During Slow Braking?
1 Answers
There are several reasons for abnormal noise during slow braking: 1. There is sand or other foreign objects between the brake pads and brake discs; 2. If the noise is muffled, it may be due to issues with the brake caliper, such as wear on the sliding pins or detachment of the spring clips. 3. Braking after driving through water can also cause abnormal noise. 4. Excessive wear of the brake pads may expose the fixed points of the friction material, leading to noise when rubbing against the brake disc or brake drum. Below are some related solutions: 1. When a hissing sound occurs during braking, it is recommended to first check if there are any issues with the friction between the caliper, brake disc, and brake pads. 2. When a sharp noise occurs during braking, aside from the break-in period of new pads, the first step should be to check the brake pads for wear or foreign objects. If the brake pads are worn out, they should be replaced immediately. If foreign objects are found, the brake pads should be removed, the objects taken out, and then reinstalled. 3. When a muffled noise occurs during braking, check the brake caliper for wear on the sliding pins or detachment of the spring clips. If any issues are found, they should be replaced immediately. 4. When a rattling noise occurs during braking, check if any attachments on the brake pads are loose. The best solution is to reinforce them or replace the brake pads with new ones.
