Hi all,
I replaced my brakes (August) and haven't driven too much on them, never pressed the brakes hard in bad conditions though. (Rain, puddles, etc.)
Recently, I experienced a squeaking noise under various conditions:
- If I move slowly after holding the brakes at a standstill, there is a squeak related to the wheel rotation from the front left, where once every revolution of the wheel you would hear a squeak. slightly hitting the brakes once usually removes the issue until I make a full stop.
- If I am coming to a stop and am not too hard on the brakes after a few seconds there is a loud screech as if my pads were completely worn and Its just metal on metal rubbing, this sound is completely gone when I let off the brakes and re-apply.
Am I facing a lazy caliper?
Any ideas?
