Subject Brake Noise - All Models
- Description
Some vehicles may experience a squeaking or grinding noise originating from the front or rear disc
brakes when applying the brake. The concern maybe related to the brake pads sticking and not
moving freely in the slides due to lack of lubrication one/or corrosion. To address this concern
remove, clean and lubricate the brake pad contact area as shown in the article.
^ Remove caliper mounting bracket as required
^ Clamp mounting bracket into vice and clean the rust and/or corrosion using a wire brush
^ Lubricate the cleaned areas with CRC(R) Synthetic Brake Caliper Grease
^ Use grease on both sides of anti-squeak shim if equipped
CAUTION:
Make sure NO grease gets on the braking surfaces.
If grease gets on the pad friction material or rotor it must be cleaned before road-testing the
vehicle.
