What Causes Loud Brake Noise When Reversing?
1 Answers
The reason for loud brake noise when reversing is: Brakes primarily operate during forward vehicle motion, causing prolonged unidirectional wear on the brake pads. This creates burrs on the reverse side, which produce abnormal sounds when rubbing against the brake disc during reverse braking. This issue can be resolved by removing and smoothing the brake pads or replacing them with higher-quality ones. More details are as follows: 1. The automotive brake system, also known as the automotive braking system, functions to: forcibly decelerate or stop moving vehicles as required by the driver; maintain stationary vehicles on various road conditions (including slopes); and stabilize speed during downhill driving. 2. Currently, most domestic automakers use front-disc-rear-drum brake systems for small and medium-sized production vehicles, with some models featuring four-wheel disc brakes. Compared to drum brakes, disc brakes are more technologically advanced, lighter in weight, and offer superior heat dissipation, braking performance, and adaptability to complex weather and road conditions.
