hey fellow evo owners, i just like to know if some of you experience hearing whining noises during braking from a slow speed. is this normal?

like squeeling? yes thats normal, high-performance pads will do that

Even OEM pads will do that at low speeds.Originally Posted by rammsteinmatt

yup, we all have brakes that squeak, squeel, whine and make other noises. Performance brakes are not cool unless they make noises.

thanks guys. i cannot really say that it's a squealing noise but more of a whining noise. but anyway, i appreciate you guys clarifying that it's not really a problem.

the only probelm the brakes can have is not stopping the car......and that is obvious when that occurs
and performance brakes arent cool unless they are warm

ok 1ST OFF ...yes i know they squeak/squeal more than the usual brakes. but...
i went to the dealership thursday for my 20k service. asked them to check everything ...fluids, brakes, suspension, driveshafts, etc. get it back, with fresh oil and they said everything looked good. no problem. well yesterday they were unusually loud when slowing down. theyll squeak from time to time but, not at EVERY stop. diagnosis?
The brakes probably need to be regreased.Originally Posted by *chris*
are the details in the owners manual or service guide?
Actually, try rebedding the brakes again to see if the squeal goes away. If not, you will probably have to take off the brake pads and regrease the back of the pads and the contact points. O0
our brakes do not squek if break in properly...
did you just change your brakes?
i wonder wtf did the dealer do to your brakes..
(tee hee)<br /><br />j_nizzle: omgoshers!!! you are so cool!

The dealership is most likely giving you the thumbs up because:
a. The rotoars are still within spec
b. When they look, they still see brake material
What you can do is this:
1. Remove the callipers
1a. take out the pads
1b. remove the shims from the pads
1c. clean everything off with brake cleaner
1d. apply brake quiet between shims and pads
1e. reassemble (don't forget this last one, it's important!)
2. Repeat steps, a-c
2a. replace/machine brake rotoars
2b. replcae pads
2c. reassemble
The reason your brakes queel is actually due to vibration. Kind of like you licking your finger, then rubbing it across a glass surface. Remove/reduce/absorb the vibration and you will reduce the noice.

well the squeak is down to normal again now. so i guess ill just watch it closely and if it starts up again ill see if i can work it out either through the bed-in or your ideas blaze.
you own an Evo..... get used to the squeeky brakes....it's part of our cars charm and character!

Use the copper stuff, not hight temp disc brake grease. It worked like a charm for me.Originally Posted by kimletrim

Where do you find the copper stuff?
Use anti-seize on all contact points on the back plating. This stuff wont disappear cause its hi-temp. No squeaks for me :roll:
miss evo8.....
the but of course would be that they were squeaking WAY more than normal (for our brembos) even though the dealership said they were fine.Originally Posted by *chris*
they are fine now ....i dunno what the hell was going on. maybe my car was just pissed at me for something.
hey.Â* i washed my car last week and i noticed that my breaks squeak once in a while but only under light breaking.Â* i need to wash it again because it's dirty.
i try not to directly spray the rotors and the brembos.
how should i go along with washing my rims...besides removing them?
i have no clue what the hell your talking about. I spray the balls off my calipers and rotors. What do you do when it rains....not drive your car? It squeeks cause thats normal...for many cars. The squeek also may be cause you didnt break in the pads right
