What Causes Brake Pulsation and Vibration?
1 Answers
The causes of brake pulsation and vibration include uneven wear of the brake disc or damage to brake components. Below are the specific reasons for brake pulsation: Uneven Disc Wear: If the outer side of the brake disc is thicker than the inner side or vice versa, during braking, the brake pads clamp the disc vertically. If the disc is uneven and does not fully contact the pads, it will cause vibration. The higher the speed, the more severe the vibration, making it harder to stop the vehicle. Damaged Brake Components: If you feel the brake vibrating when applying the brakes, especially at high speeds on highways, it indicates that the surface flatness of the brake disc or pads is off. Loss of brake elasticity can involve damage to many components.
