What Causes Brake Noise in Snowy Weather?
1 Answers
Specific reasons for brake noise in snowy weather: 1. Improper installation of brake pads: When installing new brake pads, the old brake discs were not resurfaced, resulting in a poor fit. Improper installation or failing to resurface the old discs before installing new brake pads will cause the new pads to rub directly against the uneven surface of the old discs, ultimately leading to uneven wear on the new brake pads. 2. Brake system malfunction: There may be inherent defects 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 noise. It is recommended to check components such as the calipers and guide pins. 3. Presence of foreign objects: Foreign objects causing a mismatch in the contact surfaces, leading to noise.
