if there are 2 shims on my brake pads will it cause squealing?
Wagner Brake Pads 2 Comments »I ‘ve placed wagners thermo quiet Brake Pads on the front of my scion tc and they are now squealing when I applied the brakes lightly from a car going 30mph and up regardless of temperature. what could be the problem? Rotors are find and the brake pads are brand new from Kragen, i also lube and clean all parts.
pads themselves are only part of the prob.if you think of your brake rotor as an old record album and the pads as the needle what you get is a vibration,that in turn puts off a frequency that is audible to the human ear.so the key here is to get rid of the vibration.rotors if machinable should be so that any distortion in the rotor surface from previous use can be eliminated(rough rotors cause vibration)make sure you clean and lube all surfaces on caliper slides and/or replace brake hardware,resurface rotors and install new linings.normally pads themselves do not cause any noise.vibration is the problem.
