squeel from drivers side tire
Thursday, June 15, 2006 6:18 AM
Well About 2 weeks ago I installed all new brakes pads , rotors , drums and shoes well lately ive been noticing that I can hear a rather high pitch squeel coming from the drivers side front tire but as soon as I touch the brakes it goes away . What could cause that anything to check ?

I would start my checking the brakes again, maybe the sliders are sticking, maybe the the pads are just rubbing a little. maybe there is some dirt or rocks lodged somewhere.

Question for U? Did u put some brake quiet on the back of the brake pads b4 installing the pads into the caliper.If u did not I would highly recommend removing the pads and applying any brand brake quiet on the those let it dry for 15-20 minutes or more then reinstall.This will prevent the shims or backing plates to NOT touch metal to metal and cause the squeel ur are talking about.This is not a uncommon issue with brake noise.Any auto store sells this stuff and very effective to resolve the issue and last for miles on end.OK
