Squeaking Sound When Lightly Pressing the Brakes?
1 Answers
The causes of squeaking sounds when lightly pressing the brakes include: installation of new brake pads; presence of small stones or sand between the brake disc and brake pads; or water between the brake pads and brake disc. Here are the solutions for addressing squeaking sounds when braking: 1. Worn or stuck release bearing, loose wear on the release lever pin and pin hole, or loose wear on the drive pin and pin hole; 2. When diagnosing clutch sounds, lightly press the clutch pedal to bring the release bearing into contact with the release lever. The sound from the release bearing may be due to lack of lubrication, looseness, or damage to the bearing; 3. Continuously press and release the clutch pedal. When the clutch is engaged or disengaged, assess the severity of the sound separately. Possible causes include loose wear on the release lever pin hole and support pin, loose rivets on the driven disc assembly, or failure of the vibration damper.
