Brake Squeak 850

posted by  someone claiming to be jeffery47 on  Thu Oct 30 02:11 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Same thing happens to me once and a while. I replaced the front rotors and pads, and rear rotors and pads. This was at 145,000 miles, and they were original, so i'm not complaining.

The new equip does just as you describe, but not all the time. It seems to occur after moderate braking to a stop. If I get on the brakes hard, then there is no noise. And it doesn't happen all the time. Maybe there is a bit of rust on the very edge of the rotors and has the pads fully engage, the rust causes the squeak. I am driving less now than I was, and the car does sit out in the moisture of Michigan a lot. I don't recall this ever happening when I drove a lot more with the old rotors (I replaced with OEM everything).
