ok for bout prolly the past two weeks or so, my brakes have been makin a really annoyin sound. i only hear it when im brakin at 5mph or less and its not all the time. more like 7 outta 10 times or something like that. i think its the brake pads but im not sure. i wanna fix it soon so any help is appreciated. thanks.

can ya be a little more specific than an "annoying" sound? :P

haha, its like a screeching sound. makes me want to punch something........or someone:thumbsup

Screeching like metal on metal? Sounds like you need new pads to me.

i figured thats what it was. thanks for the confirmation. yet another thing to add on my list of things to do when i go back home for thanksgiving break.

Like ^ said, you probably need new pads. The sound you hear is probably coming from the metal warning tabs on the inner pad. If your wheels are big enough, reach for the inside pad and bend the metal tab away from the rotor (or take off the wheel if you have to:thumbsup ). I had to do that a couple of months ago - at least the noise goes away and you get a few more hundred miles out of the pads. Just make sure you keep an eye on the rotors for metal-on-metal wear.

ya make sure your pads aren't worn too far down.. if they're completely gone you're gonna start eating up your rotor. end up costin you more in the long run than just replacing pads
