Break squealing help.
BRAKES....... Did you put shims on with the pads? Did you use disk brake grease on the back of the pads? What pads did you use. Not all pads are equal, some will make noise while breaking in.
Had OEM brakes with when its started then change out to Wagner pads. did not see any shims when i remove the OEM pads will have to check it again. When i remove the OEM pads its had more then 80% life left! The only i did before its started squealing was Changing RIMS out Went from 17's to 20's then 16's.
find out where there is contact under braking with the rim
OE pads have shims on them
not all new pads come with shims, but the use of brake caliper lube helps all brake operations
Did you simply throw pads on and not remove the rotors for cleaning with 150 sandpaper
If you got high miles and still have lots of pad- those things are probably glazed
Need to scour off the old pad material from rotors and bed in the new pads
Any ridge on the edges of rotor will cause a noise on initial or light braking
When you brake harder you go past that ridge
When something new happens after recent work- always suspect the recent work!
Is your car lowered??
