What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Braking in a New Car?
1 Answers
The reasons for abnormal noise when braking in a new car are: 1. The brake pads are in the break-in period. New brake pads and brake discs require a break-in process, and this abnormal noise is normal during this time; 2. Metal particles appear in the brake pads. The original factory brake pads that come with the car are semi-metallic, and when worn to a certain extent, unevenly distributed high-hardness metal particles may appear. These metal particles spread across the brake pads and create noise when in contact with the brake disc; 3. Excessive wear of the brake disc and brake pads. When excessively worn, abnormal noise may occur, so regular inspection and replacement are necessary. The replacement cycle for brake pads is 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, and for brake discs, it is 100,000 to 120,000 kilometers; 4. Deformation of the brake disc. If the car produces abnormal noise and vibration when braking, it may be due to a deformed brake disc, which requires replacement.
