    Hi,

    I had my car checked last Saturday for screeching brakes. The mechanic cleaned the break pads(using liha - not sure with spelling?) But the screeching sound returned after a day again. I'll bring back the car to the mechanic and have it checked this weekend. At any rate, any ideas re: this problem? Thanks.

    it's probably the pads you used. try bendix standard para walang noise.

    possible that brake pads are already worn out.

    since nalinis n brake pads tsek mo kung nagasgas sya pagbalik mo mechanic, kung nagasgas baka na-stock up ang brake mo.

    Thanks a lot for the reps!

    What the mechanic did was he drained the fluid daw of both front wheels. Iyung brake pads ko are still in good shape sabi niya during my first visit pa.

    Anyhow, the noise disappeared for a week. Pero bumalik. After two weeks, maingay nanaman

    Yup! It's the usual thing you hear. Mas evident iyung sound on the way down a level of a parking lot and then you hit the brakes.

    Check your rotor if smooth pa. pag may gasgas na baka you need to reface na.
