have you recently installed new brakes
0:02
and noticed a squeaking sound when
0:03
stopping slowly don't worry you're not
0:05
alone it's pretty common and today I'm
0:08
breaking down the seven most common
0:09
causes for this annoying noise let's
0:12
Dive Right In First up brake pad
0:13
material new brake pads often contain
0:16
hard compounds that can cause a
0:17
squeaking sound especially when they are
0:19
new materials like ceramic or metallic
0:22
pads are effective but may make noise
0:24
until they break in next we've got the
0:26
beding in process new pads and rotors
0:30
during the first few hundred miles the
0:32
brake pads wear evenly against the rotor
0:35
which can create temporary squeaking
0:37
this is normal and should fade as the
0:39
components settle moisture or debris can
0:41
also be culprits damp conditions such as
0:44
rain or humidity can cause a thin layer
0:46
of water to form on the brake pads
0:48
leading to squeaking similarly debris
0:51
like dust dirt or small stones can get
0:53
caught between the brake components and
0:55
cause noise another Factor could be the
0:57
brake pad surface if the surface of the
0:59
new brake pad ad is too smooth or uneven
1:01
it might lead to squeaking properly
1:03
aligned surfaces allow better contact
1:05
reducing noise sometimes a quick
1:07
cleaning or resurfacing may help now
1:10
let's talk about the rotor condition if
1:12
the rotors are uneven scored or not
1:14
properly machined they can cause noise
1:16
when the brake pads make contact even
1:19
new rotors can have imperfections that
1:20
lead to squeaks which may need
1:22
professional attention brake pad
1:24
installation issues are also something
1:26
to consider incorrect installation can
1:28
lead to squeaking if the brake pads are
1:30
not aligned properly or the shims are
1:32
missing or incorrectly placed they may
1:35
produce a squealing sound this issue is
1:37
often easily fixed by a mechanic lastly
1:39
lack of lubrication can be a problem the
1:42
contact points of the brake system such
1:44
as where the brake pads meet the caliper
1:46
need proper lubrication without it the
1:48
metal toetal contact can create friction
1:51
that leads to squeaking in summary while
1:53
it's normal for new brakes to Make Some
1:54
Noise persistent squeaking might
1:56
indicate a problem that needs attention
1:59
understand these common causes can help
2:01
you identify if it's just a temporary
2:03
issue or if it requires more serious
2:05
intervention if the squeaking continues
2:07
after the betting in process or seems
2:09
abnormal it's always a good idea to
2:12
consult with a mechanic thanks for
