Rust in disc brakes

[JCBalunsat]

Pano po ba tanggalin ito? Any preventive measures para di na magkaroon ng rust yung brakes ko? TIA

[afrasay]

magkaka rust yan talaga unless you have it painted. pag di mo nagamit ng matagal magkaka rust siya. pero once you use it mawawala din yun.

[JCBalunsat]

ahhhhh... danun pala. de ku lam e. hihihih. tenchu po.

Get disc that are cadmium plated they don't rust as much and as quickly. Otherwise just use the car and when you apply the brakes that will remove the rust.

question bakit po mabilis siya kapitan ng kalawang??

[Horsepower]

Because the bare Iron loses one of its electrons in reaction to air and water. It then becomes Iron oxide.

madalas mangyari to pag maulan o kaya pag lumusong ka sa baha, pagpark mo sa bahay kinabukasan tadtad ng kalawang..

[theveed]

and it's just surface corrosion, it won't damage your rotors... Even high end cars have this issue, just step on the brakes while the car is running above 10kph and it's gone right away, ignore it.

ang galing may chemistry din pla yun..hehehe

[JCBalunsat]

Thanks po sa lahat ng reply. Now I know.

Yung rust din ba ang nag-ca-cause ng squeaking sound pag nagb-brake?

[theveed]

No, brake squeaks are almost purely due to the brake pad... either a little pebble got lodged in between or the pad is thin.

sir bakit po ung akin natunog pag medyo makalawang, pero pansin ko lang yun pag nag break sa palusong or sa paakyat...

[suysuy]

normal kalawang sa disc brakes. minsan nga nafefeel at naririnig mo pa na merong parang magaspang na sound when applying the brakes early morning. thats normal. after ilang minutes wala na yan

[hcdangan]

Guys I need help. Is it normal for disc brakes to rust. The is brand new and only 3 months old btw. Here are some pics:





Need advice po.

sir matagal na ba hindi ginagamit? usually they do rust if you dont use the car especially now that its raining everyday.

but if you do use it in a daily basis... now thats a problem. are these replacement or OEM?

[hcdangan]

These are OEM from the day I bought the car. I use the car everyday from mondays to fridays. I seldom use it on saturdays and sundays. I washed the car yesterday. I used a hose to spray water on the wheels. Could that be the cause? Is it normal? I'm afraid that one day the rust will go deep and cause the brakes to become brittle and break.

[[archie]]

sir, im no car expert but i think it should not rust that much if its used daily.

mine does rust also pero spots lang. try driving the car today then brake and go... if it goes away then i think your fine pero kung meron pa din, parang hindi na normal.

hintayin na din natin yung car experts diyan... maybe they can explain further on what to do.

Yes its very normal. Every time you wash your car and it sit's overnight rotor will rust or havent use for a few days specially in the humid area. Dont be alarm it will "shimmy shimmy bling bling" again after few kilometers of driving.
