What Causes Abnormal Noise When Braking Slowly in a New Car?
1 Answers
The reasons for abnormal noise when braking slowly in a new car are: 1. Brake pad break-in; 2. Sand particles entering; 3. Brake system malfunction; 4. Severe brake disc wear; 5. ABS system activation. The noise during light braking at low speeds is mainly caused by friction between the brake pads and discs. Solutions include: 1. New brake pads require break-in to better integrate with old discs; 2. Usually no repair is needed—simply driving can dislodge small sand particles; 3. Missing or damaged brake disc fastening screws or the need for lubrication; 4. Replace the brake disc; 5. Press the brake pedal firmly to the floor to eliminate the noise.
