Why Does the Brake Make Noise When Braking?
1 Answers
The reason for brake noise is worn brake pads, which need to be replaced promptly. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Brake pads are consumables that gradually wear thinner during vehicle use. When the friction layer is nearly depleted, an alarm device, namely the brake pad wear indicator, located at the edge of the brake pad will come into contact with the brake disc, producing a sharp metallic friction sound as a warning to the driver that the brake pads should be replaced. 2. Brake fluid is recommended to be replaced every 2 years. Brake fluid has certain corrosive properties and strong water absorption. Nowadays, service stations are equipped with specialized tools to measure the water content in brake fluid, allowing for a test to determine if replacement is necessary. Brake fluid must be replaced regularly according to the maintenance schedule, and it is advisable to follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance intervals.
