Remove the new pads, and clean all surfaces with spray brake cleaner. Remove all rust from the caliber, but do not use any sharp objects, just a wire brush. Apply anti-squeal compound to the back surface of the pads where they touch the caliber. Check the brake wear indicator tab and make sure it is not bent and touching the rotor. Take the rotor to a machine shop and have it turned. Reinstall everything. If you still have a squeal, after doing this, then you have bought metallic pads, and sometimes they just squeal. To stop this squeal, purchase a set of non-metallic pads, and install them.

Why do the new rear drum brakes on your Camry still squeak?

The new rear drum brakes on your Camry may still squeak due to several factors. One common reason is the presence of dust, debris, or moisture on the brake components, which can create noise during operation. Additionally, if the brake shoes are not properly adjusted or if there is insufficient lubrication on the contact points, squeaking can occur. Lastly, the type of brake material used may also contribute to noise, as some compounds are more prone to squeaking than others.


Brand new front brake pads and rotors on 2002 Dodge Intrepid why do they still sqeak?

Most of the time, and it seems especially true about Chrysler vehicles, a new brake pads and rotors need a period of time to be "broken in". As the brakes are used, the brake pads put small grooves in the rotor that is unique to every pad. The squeaking you are hearing are the brake pads cutting the rotor. If this continues for a long period of time, definitely take your car back to the shop where you had the brakes installed.

Why would brakes still squeak after changing pads 2004 jeep liberty?

If you brakes are still squeaking after you change your brake pads in any car, you have a warped rotor. The squeaking is caused by the rotor vibrating when pressure is applied by the pads. The best way to permanently fix the problem is to replace your pads and your rotors at the same time. This can also cause accelerated wear on the new pads if you do not replace the rotors at the same time, or at least have them turned.
