Squealing Noise

**stickey05** · July 10th, 2017 01:20 PM

Hello. Car and forum newbie here. Need help in maybe diagnosing my problem, para po may idea ako before ko dalin sa repair shop.

My car is a Kia Picanto 2011 A/T. 26K odo reading. My problem is, may squealing noise when accelerating, pag ac is on. Pag off yung ac, no noise. Pag nakapark and ac is on, wala ding noise. I also noticed na malakas yung vibration and may rattling sound pag idle. Sabi sa casa alternator problem daw kaya lang medyo nawalan na ng tiwala sa service.

Please help. Thank you in advance.

I found this forum very useful in dealing with car problems such as parts replacement and other important tips and guides. Actually, it helps me to save a lot in buying the front and rear brake pads that is too expensive in casa and was able to find the original at the right price. My concern is, I bought a Nissin Brake Pads (front and rear) for Honda City 2011 with stock rims and tires. However, I observed lately that everyday it produces a squeaking sound when i step on the brake. The said brake pads was installed by friend (2 mos ago), an experience automotive mechanic. May I ask for your expertise, tips and guide on how to resolve it. Do I need to buy any cleaning solutions? Please advise. Thank you very much.

it is probably dragging. the caliper pins are probably seized or stuck.

Well it turns out that your mechanic lacks experience..

Buy some silicone grease to lubricate the caliper pins and put little silicone grease on the back of the pads (in between the shims)

use high-temp silicone on the caliper pins

copper grease on the back of the pads and other contact points
