What is the reason for the squeaking and thumping sound when braking in the Cruze?
1 Answers
Cruze brake squeaking and thumping sound reasons: 1. Use of inferior brake pads; 2. Uneven wear of the brake disc, where measurement with tools may reveal excessive radial runout beyond standard values, and possible unevenness during use; 3. The brake pads have not worn to the edge of the brake lining, which over time forms a raised rim. This can occur when the brake pads are replaced or if there is slight misalignment during installation. The Cruze is a compact car under SAIC-GM Chevrolet. Taking the Cruze 2018 Hatchback 320 Auto Xuanfeng Edition as an example, its powertrain is equipped with a 1.5L inline four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 84kW and a maximum torque of 146Nm, matched with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission.
