What Causes the Brake Noise in Sagitar?
1 Answers
Sagitar brake noise causes: 1. Brake disc break-in period: Whether it's a new car or newly installed brake discs, during the initial use, they haven't yet achieved a perfect fit with the brake pads. Therefore, during hard braking or emergency stops, the brake discs may produce sharp abnormal noises. This is actually a normal phenomenon and not a malfunction. During the break-in period, avoid heavy and sudden braking as much as possible, as the braking performance of new brake discs will also be compromised before the break-in is complete. 2. Continuous hard braking: When driving with continuous hard braking, thermal fade may occur. Two specific manifestations of thermal fade are significantly reduced braking force and unusual sharp noises that are not normally heard, commonly referred to as brake noise. This is a normal occurrence during thermal fade and does not indicate a brake malfunction. The noise will disappear once the thermal fade subsides. 3. Excessive brake pad wear: When the brake pads wear down to the critical point, the thickness warning metal piece on the pads will come into direct contact with the brake disc, producing an abnormally harsh noise. This indicates that the brake pads are excessively worn and must be replaced. If not replaced, the severe noise will be unbearable, and there will be a significant drop in braking force, increasing safety risks. 4. Excessive brake disc wear: Not only can excessive wear of brake pads cause noise, but excessive wear of brake discs can also lead to this issue. When the thickness of the brake disc falls below the critical point, the metal edge surrounding the disc will directly contact the brake pads, resulting not only in loud abnormal noises but also potential brake failure and severe body vibration.
