He put on ceramic brakes not certified toyota parts.
Do ceramic brake pads make a noise.
In the past brake pad friction material contained a lot of asbestos.
Every brake pad manufacturer says that they re the best and that they re an upgrade from whatever you already have.
Well before that understanding the reasons why the brakes make that noise always comes helpful.
I took it to the dealership where i have all my service done and they said the noise is because of the ceramic brakes.
We chose high end ceramic based pads for our brake job.
The most common way to stop brakes from squeaking is to remove all the brake pads disassemble the calipers and lubricate all moving caliper parts with high temperature grease and all caliper to brake pad contact points with brake pad lube.
The reason ceramic brakes squeal is that the back of the brake pad vibrates against the caliper assembly.
They said it is not a safety issue but they would be happy to remove the ceramic brakes and put on toyota brakes and of course turn the rotors and charge me an arm and.
This vibration causes the squealing.
Most importantly ceramic brake pads are more resistant to heat which also preserves the life of your brakes too.
This takes a lot of stress off the brake discs which means they will last longer too.
The front brake pads are easy to replace and is a do it yourself sort of thing.
Check the wheels and brakes for excess brake dust.
The grinding noise is the brakes pads proably the noise is in the front.
One of the major cause of brakes noise after new pads and rotors is having excess brake dust that is trapped between the caliper and the rotor.
This will also make a squeak but again a grinding noise is typically metal on metal or brake pad stuck.
Even if the new brakes squealing is a common issue with you it should better be cured and that too timely.
The brake pad compound itself can also make some noise.
Basically whenever a brake pad is changed an expert mechanic is supposed to spray brake cleaner on the calipers and rotor to ensure that the brake dust that has entered in between the two components is totally removed.
What noises do brakes make.
My guess is your brake light is coming on.
The squealing is normally the result of not using a brake lining shim or not putting enough anti squeal lubricant on the back of the brake pad where the pad touches the caliper.
Getting new brakes can often leave you hearing that squealing sound.
Due to getting new rotors you will want to make sure the correct replacement rotors have been used.
There s a right way and a wrong way to do anything and through the thick storm of relentless marketing hype that line can get a little blurred.
