What Causes the Squeaking Noise When Braking with New Brake Pads?
1 Answers
The reasons for squeaking noise when braking with new brake pads are as follows: Brake pad break-in: It is normal for new brake pads to produce noise during the break-in period. Typically, after driving a few hundred kilometers, the braking will feel smoother. Sand particles entering: While driving, very fine sand particles may get between the pad and the disc, sometimes causing noise due to friction. Brake system malfunction: Missing or damaged brake disc mounting screws or insufficient lubrication can also lead to brake noise. Severe brake disc wear: Abnormal noise can occur when the brake disc is worn due to a dirty disc surface, uneven material density of the disc, excessively high working temperatures, or mismatched installation torque of the brake disc.
