Why does the Sylphy make noise when braking?
2 Answers
Sylphy makes noise when braking because: when the car is cold, the brake fluid temperature is low, causing the brake caliper to not separate completely. The solution is: step on the brake a few more times to increase the brake fluid temperature or warm up the car for a few minutes. The Sylphy is a sedan produced by Dongfeng Nissan Passenger Vehicle Company, adopting the family VMotion 2.0 design language. Benefiting from Nissan's global CMF platform with a longer and wider chassis structure, it achieves an ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.26Cd. In terms of body dimensions, the Sylphy has a length, width, and height of 4641mm, 1815mm, and 1447mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.
I've encountered brake squealing issues with the Nissan Sylphy several times. It usually starts when the brake pads are nearly worn out, with the metal indicator scraping against the rotor to produce a high-pitched sound as a reminder to replace them. The Sylphy's compact brake system design makes it prone to trapping small stones or accumulating dust, and surface rust after rain can also cause initial squeaking that disappears after a few stops. If the noise persists, it might indicate grooved rotors or a seized caliper - visually check pad thickness (replace if below 1cm). Regular maintenance is crucial - have a professional inspect and clean components every 10,000 km. Safe driving relies on proper brakes. Don't skimp on maintenance costs, as delaying repairs will lead to more expensive rotor replacements later.
