29720, New brakes making high pitch noise.
Posted by blackrs99, Aug-08-06 10:10 AM
Well, ive just got slotted brembos and axxiss ceramic pads from nopi, i installed them, and everythin was perfect about 2 days or so, now, when i hit the brake pedal, somewhere between the beginning and half way, it makes really high pitch noise, but when i push it in all the way, it doesnt, today it increased that noise distance, so its about from beginnin to 4/5ths of the way, and then the last few before the full brake press, the noise stops. Anyone have a slightest idea what this could be?

take your calipers off, clean and lube your slides, and grease the outside edges(that contact the caliper bracket)with either an antisqueak that most aftermarket companies supply with pads, or Caliper Dielectrode Grease(which is what i use and live by all day at work)


in search of a new 2g....

Good call, I have used that every time I change brakes. Almost religiously, like anti-seize. I use that religiously as well.

Sorry for brining this thread back up, but i did put that grease on all the contact parts, however it worked for about an hour and it started squeeling again. I switched the sides of my rotors, now the slots are pointing in opposite direction of the car movement, and it works fine. I picked up the paper that i found in my brembo box, and it said that people usualy end up putting discs in direction of the slots, which can be wrong at times , and it gave some explanation that i bothered to read :)

But i guess i should've read them, so seems like switching directions worked. Thanks again :)
