Noisey brakes
« on: 07 October 2008, 19:12 »
perhaps its just me , or the fact the brakes are getting damp therefore rusting a bit but i have noticed that there a little noisey when coming to a stop, nothing bad, a bit like my grooved AP discs were (which you expect a little), anyone else get this, or are my ears super sensitive

Is it from the rear only?
Without traction power is nothing!

I asked as it's not uncommon for some pad glazing to occur leading to a low screech from the rear when slowly coming to a stop.

If it is the case then a few sharp stops from around 70mph without actually coming to a dead stop usually cures it.

I get this quite a lot. Will be doing some emergency stops from 70 to try and cure it then!  :laugh:

Definitely in the morning, when I take the car from the garage and out on to the road, I can hear "scraping" noises coming from the rear brakes as I slow down waiting to turn on to the road. Only happens in the mornings and only when I press on the brakes. No problems by the time I reach work.

Is this just first thing in the morning?  And have you noticed a rust build up on the surface of the disc?

Or are they making the noise all the time?
