What Causes Friction Noise in Car Brakes?
1 Answers
Detailed explanation and solutions for the causes of friction noise in car brakes are as follows: 1. Stiffness between the brake disc and brake pads: The friction material in the brake pads is too hard, making friction more likely. Solution: Sand the brake pads with coarse sandpaper or take the car to a repair shop for adjustment. 2. Grooved brake disc or presence of foreign objects: Foreign objects between the pads and disc, or grooved brake discs causing localized friction, can also lead to abnormal noise. Solution: Replace the brake disc or remove the foreign objects. 3. Severe wear of brake pads or brake disc. Solution: Replace the brake pads or brake disc.
