Why does the brake make noise when braking?
1 Answers
The reasons for noisy brakes are: 1. Excessive wear of brake discs or brake drums; 2. Slow return of the master brake cylinder; 3. Presence of metal particles or small gravel between brake pads and discs; 4. Rust in the brake caliper; 5. Overly hard brake pads; 6. Inflexible handbrake cable. Solutions for noisy brakes include: 1. Replacing brake pads; 2. Replacing brake discs; 3. Cleaning brake discs; 4. Cleaning the brake caliper; 5. Adding brake fluid. The car brake is located below the steering wheel, and its working principle is: pressing the brake pedal causes the brake linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake shoes on the brake drum, which then clamp the brake disc, slowing down or stopping the car.
