What Causes the Noise When Braking While Stationary?
1 Answers
The reasons for noise when braking while stationary are: 1. The sound of the gear lock; 2. Parking without engaging the handbrake; 3. Excessive brake pad clearance; 4. Metal hard spots on the brake pads; 5. Abnormal brake caliper or lack of brake fluid; 6. Foreign objects between the brake drum or disc and the shoe. Solutions for noise when braking while stationary: 1. Apply butter or special lubricating oil at the connection between the brake pads and the brake caliper; 2. Regularly inspect and replace the brake pads; 3. Regularly adjust the brakes; 4. Avoid frequent use of the brakes. The function of the brakes is to reduce speed or stop the vehicle. The working principle is to use the friction between the brake pads and the brake drum, as well as between the tires and the ground, to convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle into heat energy after friction, thereby slowing down or stopping the car.
