The reasons for the squeaking sound when braking to the full extent are: 1. Excessive wear of the brake disc and brake pads; 2. Abnormal installation of the brake pads; 3. Presence of foreign objects on the brake pads and brake disc; 4. Poor retraction of the caliper can cause prolonged friction between the disc and pads. Methods for brake maintenance include: 1. Regularly check the thickness and wear of the brake pads, and ensure they retract freely; 2. Replace them promptly when wear reaches the limit to avoid reduced braking effectiveness and compromised driving safety; 3. Use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) provided brake pads for replacement; 4. Use specialized tools to retract the brake caliper piston during replacement; 5. After replacement, press the brake pedal several times to eliminate the gap between the pads and the brake disc.

Gear grinding occurs in manual transmission models, and the condition is mainly due to incomplete clutch disengagement.
