What is the reason for the abnormal noise when braking and starting the Geely Emgrand GS?
2 Answers
Geely Emgrand GS abnormal noise when braking and starting reasons are as follows: Running-in of new cars: The running-in of brake pads is a very important part. Usually, you can feel that the brakes are more comfortable after running hundreds of kilometers. Newly replaced brake pads also need to be run-in to better fit with the old disc. When they are just replaced, the brakes will feel very hard, and it usually takes hundreds of kilometers of driving to feel better. Foreign objects on the brake disc: While driving, very small sand particles may get between the pad and the disc, sometimes causing abnormal noise due to friction. This situation generally does not require repair. Just drive for a while to let the small sand particles fall out.
I've driven quite a few cars before, and brake squeaking during startup is quite common. It's especially noticeable in models like the Geely Emgrand GS, whether it's a new car or one with more mileage. There are various reasons, such as uneven wear on the brake pads, which causes a squeaking sound due to friction when starting; or dust and rust buildup on the brake discs, which becomes more pronounced when starting the vehicle in damp or cold conditions. I remember once dealing with a similar issue—simply sanding the edges of the brake pads with sandpaper reduced the noise. If the sound persists, it's advisable to check the lubrication of the brake system to prevent issues like calipers not retracting or blocked brake lines. The startup squeaking could also stem from interference in the suspension system, but in most cases, it's not serious. Regular maintenance, like washing the car periodically to keep it clean, can prevent the issue from worsening and affecting driving safety. Don't rush into major repairs—start with simple checks first.
