BMW 3 Series brake noise may be caused by excessive wear of the brake discs or uneven wear due to the owner's driving habits. It is necessary to send the vehicle for inspection as soon as possible to check, clean, or replace the brake discs to ensure driving safety. Additional information is as follows: Braking system: It is one of the important parts of a vehicle, mainly serving to slow down the vehicle. Typically, household cars use disc brakes, which mainly include brake discs and brake calipers. The friction between the calipers and brake discs slows down the vehicle. However, during daily driving, the calipers and brake discs are separated. The calipers only clamp the brake discs when the brake pedal is pressed. Therefore, during driving, debris may stick to the brake discs or calipers, or uneven wear or damage to the brake discs may cause noise when braking. At this time, it is necessary to promptly check the vehicle's braking system for cleaning or replacement to ensure driving safety.
