What are the reasons for the squeaking brakes on Jetta VS5?
1 Answers
Here are the specific reasons for the squeaking brakes on Jetta VS5: 1. Improper installation of brake pads: When installing new brake pads, the old brake discs were not resurfaced, resulting in a poor fit. A poor fit or installing new brake pads without resurfacing the old discs will cause the new pads to rub directly against the uneven surface of the old discs, ultimately leading to uneven wear of the new brake pads. 2. Brake system malfunction: There may be a defect in the brake system itself, causing the brake pads to only partially contact the brake discs. This increases the pressure per unit area on the brakes, resulting in squeaking. It is recommended to check components such as the caliper and guide pins. 3. Presence of foreign objects: Foreign objects cause a poor contact surface fit, leading to squeaking.
