BRAKE SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS
BRAKE NOISE TROUBLESHOOTING
Dirt or dust buildup on the brake pads and disc is the most common cause of brake noise (squeal caused by vibration).
If cleaning does not reduce the occurrence of brake noise, Permatex™
Disc Brake Quiet can be applied to the back of
the pads. Follow directions on the package. This will keep pads in contact with caliper piston(s) to reduce the chance
of squeaks caused by dirt or dust.
POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY
Dirt, dust, or imbedded material on pads or disc
Spray disc and pads with CRC Brakleen™ or an
equivalent non-flammable aerosol brake cleaner.
Remove pads and/or disc hub to clean imbedded
material from disc or pads.
Pad(s) dragging on disc due to:
Improper adjustment
Master cylinder reservoir overfilled
Master cylinder compensating port restricted
Master cylinder piston not returning completely
