What are the causes of brake noise?
1 Answers
Brake noise can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Metal hard spots on brake pads: If there are tiny metal particles on the brake pads, they will produce a sharp noise when braking. You can try slamming the brakes a few times or grinding and replacing the brake pads. 2. Severe wear on brake discs: After prolonged use, deep grooves will form on the brake discs where the brake pads make contact, causing noise when braking. If the grooves are not deep, they can be resolved by grinding the edges of the brake pads. If the grooves are deep, the brake discs must be replaced. 3. Foreign objects: Foreign objects can cause misalignment of the contact surfaces, leading to noise.
